Sandwich
Massachusetts.
The federal crossing inventory lists 11 public at-grade railroad crossings in Sandwich, MA, operated by one railroad. 2 of them carry more than one track.
Who runs the track
MASSACHUSETTS COASTAL RAILROAD, LLC operates 11 of the crossings here, 100% of the total.

How much traffic is reported
The busiest crossing at Freezer Road on MASSACHUSETTS COASTAL RAILROAD, LLC is credited with 8 train movements a day; the middle of the range across all 11 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 30 mph.
Warning devices
7 of the 11 crossings carry gates and 4 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
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.
