This was the last crossing I chased the TCRM Excursion Train at, and after that, I went back home. I decided to go ahead and get this newly-upgraded crossing on Sparta Pike, (US Route 70) before I left. I had to wait a while before the train came, because after I left Trammel Lane, I had to wait about 10 minutes for the train to come by, and when I heard the train noise, I started recording.
