Answer: 250 feet
Feedback:
We do not want rail equipment to impede the vision of the public at a road crossing from seeing rail traffic on any track. That is why the minimum distance is 250 ft. In addition, leaving equipment clear of signal circuits will prevent a false activation of the automatic warning devices.
