Explanation
You must stop at all railroad crossings when a signal of an approaching train is present, such as flashing red lights, a lowered crossing gate, a flagger signaling, or a train’s audible warning. You may proceed only after the train has cleared the crossing, the lights have stopped flashing, the gate is all the way up, or the flagger has signaled traffic to proceed. Check all the tracks for any additional oncoming trains or railroad equipment before proceeding.
