A truck pulling metal pipes was stuck in Virginia where Fringer Trail crosses the tracks at Lithia along the Norfolk Southern Railroad. He told me he tried calling the number on the crossing, but with no reception he went back to get his truck off the tracks. He was under his truck when he heard our horn. It was on a downgrade, but we were only going about 10mph with a train under a mile long. This driver was very lucky the engineer was alert and saw him just around the bend in the tracks. If we were faster, heavier, we all may have not been so fortunate. We were delayed over an hour until our own road crew sent a truck out and lifted the back of his trailer so he could back up. Small crossings like this make me more nervous than major ones for this very reason. We cross dozens, if not over a hundred on each trip.
The purple numbers written on the window are from my variety pack of dry erase markers - I write in slow orders so I don't have to keep referring back to the Conductor pack.
