I see people take photos on the train tracks all the time and trains are pretty silent. There would be a lot more dead.

- Symbiote 2y agoHere's over an hour of recordings of level crossings (railroad crossings) in the UK. I've obviously only watched a couple of minutes, but there are no train horns. There's a mixture of urban and rural locations. https://youtu.be/9FoeIxfYW20?t=122&feature=shared https://youtu.be/9FoeIxfYW20?t=122&feature=shared
- ghaff 2y agoFor pedestrian crossings at least, I did a long distance walk in England where there was signage at a couple crossings to the effect of look, listen, and be aware. On other walks, there was a phone you were supposed to use (I did) to call an operations center to get a go ahead to cross.
