This has happened 3 times at that crossing(including today) in the last year. That's some fricked up bullshite. Once was late night, NBD. But a massive cluster frick was about 4pm on a weekday a while back. Highland exit traffic was backed up to Siegen(well about where Tinseltown is).

That's pretty awesome. Wife was stuck in it for probably 35-45 minutes. Sent videos of the cops trying to frick with it. Funny.

Can they not just take the arm off. I mean it can't be more than a few bolts it's not rocket science.

I got caught in this the last time it happened during afternoon rush hour.

Then you remember that shite? . I needed to exit Highland to get to airline. Was quicker to get the frick out that crap and left-lane it to 73 and come back up airline.

MUCH quicker.

When it happened late at night, I just drove through/around that shite. But we're talking 1030pm and nobody around.

Damn, at 6:50 this morning the light started to flash as I was crossing it. I could hear the train horn seconds later.

ETA: Wait so if the train came thru at 6:50 and at 8:39 its still a cluster frick, someone needs to be fired and the train people need some new wrenches. It cant take but 10 minutes to unbolt one of those arms. Or was there a second train?
