Sorry for getting the crossing after it activated and the shakieness. The crossing had an early activation malfunction and a van got in my shot so I had to find new positions while recording... Decided to run from the Fresno Sub to the Sac Sub to catch this train. A northbound BNSF manifest freight train on the UP Sacramento Subdivision passing the #2 Fruitridge Rd railroad crossing with BNSF 8086, BNSF 3910, and BNSF 7915 and an outbound Sacramento Light Rail Blue Line departing the Fruitridge Station with SACRT 111 and 128 Siemens U2A's. The light rail didn't activate the crossing as the crossing activated before it got into the station. Also since it was an early activation the traffic lights didn't turn red before the activation. The Sac Sub MoW Construction started back today also at the X St and T St crossings.
