Reno
Nevada.
The federal crossing inventory lists 27 public at-grade railroad crossings in Reno, NV, operated by one railroad. 5 of them carry more than one track.
Who runs the track
Union Pacific Railroad Company operates 27 of the crossings here, 100% of the total.
Train services crossing these streets: freight (27) and intercity (4).
How much traffic is reported
The busiest crossing at Woodland Avenue on Union Pacific Railroad Company is credited with 15 train movements a day; the middle of the range across all 27 is 0. 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 40 mph.
Warning devices
19 of the 27 crossings carry gates and 6 have flashing lights without gates. 2 (7%) 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

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.
