Trains blocking crossings

Kentucky law limits a train to 5 minutes blocking a road crossing, under Ky. Rev. Stat. §§ 277.200, 277.990. 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 15 reports of trains blocking public crossings in this county.
