Britton
South Dakota.
The federal crossing inventory lists 27 public at-grade railroad crossings in Britton, SD, operated by one railroad. 5 of them carry more than one track.

How much traffic is reported
The busiest crossing at SD 10 on DAKOTA, MISSOURI VALLEY & WESTERN RAILROAD, INC. is credited with 2 train movements a day; the middle of the range across all 27 is 2. 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 25 mph.
Warning devices
0 of the 27 crossings carry gates and 4 have flashing lights without gates. 23 (85%) have neither, which means crossbucks, a stop sign, or no marking the inventory records at all. The inventory describes equipment, not how a crossing performs.
Horns and quiet zones
No crossing here is recorded under a whistle ban, so trains sound the standard horn pattern on approach.
Incident history
Form 57 records no reported incident at any of these crossings since 2016. That is the reporting record, not a guarantee about any crossing.
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.
