Yakima County railroad crossings -- Safety off track?
...At the deadly crossing in Mabton, for example, Burlington Northern Santa Fe is providing a used gate from a closed crossing in Curlew, Wash. It will cost $32,469 to install, compared with the $150,000 that a new gate might cost, according to state Department of Transportation officials. Utilities and Transportation also is granting $20,000 to pick up some of the bill...
Mr. Rose --as you watch this site all worried about your wallet ---You tell ole Warren BNSF BNSF has stolen millions in crossing gates/lights/circuitry/$40,000 equipment houses ...etc. and overcharged MILLIONS in crossing projects all over the country? That this crossing circuitry is junk? There is crossing lights/gates sitting all over that could be moved to active crossings for $20,000 also.
How bout you Warren --- Have you heard BNSF are crossing equipment/fund thieves and the brass should be in a very nasty prison for a very long time for MURDER by trains?
It really gets old you brass eavesdropping on private boards. You don't like it Matt REGISTER and tell us why!!!
