It's Federal law. 😁

Rule 14L (on the long island railroad at least)
@cbt1960 3 ай бұрын
That’s very interesting. This is from the FRA Rule Book: Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) rules require locomotive engineers to sound train horns between 15 and 20 seconds, but no more than a quarter-mile, in advance of all public grade crossings. Train horns must be sounded in a standardized pattern of two long, one short and one long blasts. Under the FRA mandate, the pattern must be repeated or prolonged until the lead locomotive or lead cab car is in the grade crossing. This rule applies 24 hours a day, even if a crossing is equipped with lights, bells and crossing gates.

There's an older video I've watched from around Christmastime of a train cab ride at night. One poster assumed it was a driver obsessively laying on the horn until others explained this was required by law.

The trestle bridges look incredible. I love the ground moss that seems to be a varies place that seems to grow around the tracks. This is the work of a true craftsman !!

While I am not a train nut, my dad loved them. I still remember his Marklin set running around the tree each Christmas. He died at 59. But I think he would have had grand set ups in his retirement. I think he sent this video to me. Your hard work is appreciated ❤.

I spent a lot of time walking on the tracks and when I wanted some alone time I would duck under the bridge. I loved when the train would come and the rumble would go all through your body. I was even dumb enough to hop a few trains. Thanks for a wonderful and safe trip down memory lane for me♥️

@cbt1960 3 ай бұрын
I was a power company lineman so I definitely know about long work weeks. But you just keep working those 50, or sometimes 60 or 70 hour work weeks as I sometimes did. And put as much back for retirement as you possibly can. And one day before you know it you’ll get to the point you can retire. And then I hope you’re able to build your garden railroad or do whatever you enjoy whenever you like. Good luck and Thanks for taking the time to ride along on our garden railroad. 😃👍👍👍

He was a train and railroad aficionado and one of his favorite places to relax and unwind was at our local train station in Glendale, CA where he would shoot the breeze with the guys from a local train club.
