How much traffic is reported
The busiest crossing at Old Harrods Creek on CSX Transportation is credited with 9 train movements a day; the middle of the range across all 12 is 8. These are counts the operating railroad reported to the FRA, not measurements, and a crossing's figure can be several years old.
The highest timetable speed recorded at any crossing here is 50 mph.
Warning devices
10 of the 12 crossings carry gates and 2 have flashing lights without gates. Every crossing here has an active warning device. The inventory describes equipment, not how a crossing performs.
Horns and quiet zones
8 of the crossings (67%) are recorded under a whistle ban. A quiet zone is not silence: horns still sound for emergencies, track workers and at the engineer's discretion, and the status in the inventory is only as current as the last railroad filing.

What this page is not
This is a summary of a federal inventory, not a measurement and not a rating. RailContext does not score crossings, streets or towns, and nothing here says a crossing is safe or unsafe, or that a neighbourhood is quiet or loud. Train counts are estimates the operating railroad filed, sometimes years ago, and a quiet zone does not guarantee silence.
To see the individual crossings nearest one address rather than a whole city, use the address check.
