Think that BP tanker driver is close enough to the train? What's he gonna do? Refuel right there in the road?!?

I'm suprised they don't observe fundamental rules of traffic safety there. Confusing signals - especially active signalization - is something that should never happen. It surely wouldn't be allowed in road dept. I work in.
It's a nice and interesting photo - level crossing on main street is something very rare in Poland.

thats odd the traffic lights dont turn red for the crossing. The ones round here do, if theyre near a railroad crossing, if a train is approaching the light turns red.

solid shot. It's marvelous driving a train -- everything comes to a stop when you pass! (Not so much fun for the cars, though.)

I am suprised that they don't time that traffic light to be on red whenever the train is going through the grade crossing. I can imagine someone looking at the green light and running into the train Nice shot!!
