The federal crossing inventory lists 107 public at-grade crossings across the 5 Alaska cities with at least ten of them. Anchorage has the most at 36.
Alaska Railroad Corporation operates 107 of them.
41% of those crossings carry no active warning device (crossbucks, a stop sign or nothing recorded) against 49% with gates.
Crossing counts follow how much track runs through a place, not how busy or how loud it is. A city with many short industrial spurs will list more crossings than one with a single mainline carrying far more trains.
