AMTK 90278
Title:  AMTK 90278
Description:  AMTK 90278 non-powered head end on southbound through Ridgefield with a wonderful example of, "And what exactly did you _expect_ to happen?" Yes, that mini-van saw the gates close before turning around on the DIRT road at grade crossing in Ridgefield, opening both side doors as this passenger consists hurtles toward the crossing. Interestingly enough, the folks closed the van doors... after the train passed at the 60 mph P speed limit for the area. Im presuming they didnt have enough debris inside the vehicle and wanted to remedy that deficit.
