On the evening of Tuesday, Nov 27, I was walking near the north rail crossing on Roberts Street at the time a northbound train was crossing. The crossing arms lifted and I proceeded across the grade, but I still heard the warning bell of a rail crossing.
The Broadway crossing lights were still flashing, and the arms lifted as I watched after I had crossed on Roberts - and the northbound train cleared Broadway an estimated 15 seconds before the train cleared Roberts.
Possibly our friendly corporate neighbor is still in need of a bit of work on their timing?
