    I blame the crossing arms.
    They’re dangerous and he’d have broken it.

    :rolleyes:

    Be a he didn’t look back.
    Why stop way back, there’s several places I go when you cross tracks, there’s not enough room to clear tracks, but, you got to go across because they put trees between tracks and road, but i stop and look down tracks both ways before trying to cross
