Trains blocking crossings

California law limits a train to 10 minutes blocking a road crossing, under CPUC General Order No. 135 (adopted 1974). A court has held that federal law preempts this limit, so it generally cannot be enforced against railroads. Checked 16 October 2026.

The FRA lists 777 reports of trains blocking public crossings in this county.
