I'm contemplating going the scanner route, but I wanted to know if it's worth my while. I'm a little over 1 mile from the nearest grade crossing, and within 3 miles of 2 others. There is a defect detector located a few hundred feet from that closest crossing. Is it conceivable that I could sit in my house and catch the detector at the same time that I hear the train going through (or right before/after, depending on direction)?
Please do let me know if I need to provide any further detail. My location is in my profile.
