When approaching a railroad crossing without warning devices and with visibility of less than 400 feet down the tracks in either direction, you must slow down. Unless otherwise posted, the speed limit is 15 mph within 100 feet of the crossing and must be obeyed. Listen carefully for oncoming trains, look in both directions before proceeding, and cross only when it is safe. Always expect a train.
