Is there some apparatus for the engineer to push to call for a proceed signal?My explanation of the Concord Street crossing is explained in the definition of "DTMF" in the glossary. Odd place for it, but at least it's there:
This whole "gates down too long at Concord Street" problem is quite easily solved, probably. Set them up to initiate operation via a radio signal from the engine. That's what happens in Bloomington, IL. Works like a charm. Gates drop when the train hits the circuit, but go up again on a "timeout". Then, when the train is ready to roll, the engineer tones up on the radio, and down go the gates.
