Report Violation

Are you sure you want to report the following content as a violation?
PD I"m glad you brought that up, and I agree with you  Railroads have enough money, they can and should make sure all RR crossings have signals in order to save many lives, This indeed should be dealt with.   HOWEVER, I still want their whistles to blow.  There are many places, especially in populated cities where conductors should blow their horn.  I have seen many people who walk across the tracks (not at RR crossings) to get to the other side.  The RR killing rate is bad, but it could be worse without the whistle.   I have a buddy who is a retired conductor...you know the kind that hears a train rolling down the tracks and whistles blowing even when there isn't a train for miles around. lol  Yep. I gotta love that guy...anyway he mentioned this very thing to me a couple years ago.  It certainly would have made his life less stressful if there were signals at every crossing and it would save many...
