Summary

[edit]
Description

New signs with emergency contact information are posted at railroad crossings. The signs are there so you can report an issue at the crossing such as: •A malfunction of the warning system. •When a vehicle or other obstruction is blocking the track. •When any other unsafe condition appears at the crossing, or along the railroad.

The Federal Railroad Administration requires railroads, as of Sept. 1, 2015, to post signs at all at-grade crossings, both public and private, and at both signalized (flashing lights, gates, bells) and non-signalized (crossbucks with STOP or YIELD signs) crossings.

Each sign lists the railroad’s emergency contact phone number and U.S. DOT identification number of the rail crossing so that, if something happens at the crossing, the responsible railroad can be quickly contacted.
