Comment Re: Grade crossings? (Score 2) 220
What works more than not is by making the road traffic go under the rail at crossings.
Since the train is new, the roads were almost always there first. Tunneling the train or elevating the train would have been more appropriate. Probably easier and cheaper too since tunnels for cars generally need to be wider, taller and have powerful ventilation to vent gasoline fumes, car fires, overturned tanker trucks, etc.
