    Safety first at Abbeville, SC on 09/11/1993. In 2018, CSX eliminated Abbeville as a crew change point and bulldozed the SAL depot.

    No too much, though. Some streets in downtown Montreal have a dozen or so signs indicating parking rules, restrictions, alternating day parking, speed limits, bus stop zones, lane assignments...:eek::confused: By the time you've finished reading and deciphering all of them, you'll have a ticket under your wiper already...:mad:

    Sign, sign, everywhere a sign...:whistle:

    I agree it is not too much. These days, if you hit someone over the head with a baseball bat, it still would not get their attention. Duh. It might not be aimed toward just for the party wishing to cross those tracks, but to protect themselves from that inattentive party suing them, after the inattentive party gets hit by a train.

    That's a no-nonsense sign there posted by Amtrak.

    "Wait, wait! I'm a taxpayer. I own some of this property somewhere!"

    Weird, those signals almost look European!

    Us on the Left Coast never see those.
