People never cease to amaze me....

So the storms did something screwy to the RR crossings in central FTW. The arms are stuck down at West 7th near Montgomery Plaza. The RR has zero ETA when a crew can come fix it, so I placed road flares on the ground so people would go around.

But no, I leave to go to the restroom, and when I come back, there are lines of cars waiting for the train that isn't there.

So, little sticks of fire aren't clue enough????

I just left because it looks bad if I stay and laugh.

(d) An operator commits an offense if the operator drives around, under, or through a crossing gate or a barrier at a railroad crossing while the gate or barrier is closed, being closed, or being opened.

So no, your flares aren't sufficient clues

Not sure what you are trying to say Tony, but one cannot around, through, or under this crossing. Well, a Ford GT might be able to clear the gates.

I think he thought you set them up so people would go around the gates and cross the tracks. That's how i initially read your post too.

Your original post says "so I placed road flares on the ground so people would go around."

Now they can't go around.


Really?

If i saw flares, id turn around and find another way.

Flares mean do not enter.
