Actually a couple of questions.
Are the "W" signs mandatory?? I believe they are there to inform the engineer of a slow train where to blow their horn....but when going 80MPH...it can be done sooner.
Another words..is it a Violation of LIRR Rules If the engineer blows his horn BEFORE the "W"sign??
Second Question.
The "LONG LONG SHORT LONG.....Can ONE series of horn blasts be used in a series of Grade Crossings that are close together.such as in Farmingdale or Mineola.......Or does EACH individual crossing require its OWN individual set of horn blasts??
