Sources and dates
This independent atlas from Tan Solutions covers U.S. crossings reported open and at track level.
It does not rate crossings or confirm current conditions.
The sources and dates below are for the FRA inventory of 1 November 2026.

Reviewed . Each reference links to its source page. Announced funding does not confirm completed work.
- Railroad ownership notes
Crossing pages keep the railroad name as filed. For well-documented mergers only, they add the current owner, for example Kansas City Southern, Soo Line and Dakota, Minnesota & Eastern, now part of CPKC under Surface Transportation Board Finance Docket No. 36500 (2023).

Surrounding places
Land cover and population describe the area around a crossing, not its users. Coverage and dates appear with each study. Interactive studies require an account.
Extra drive time
Crossing pages estimate the extra drive time from the nearest fire or EMS station, and to the nearest hospital, when a train blocks the crossing.
Roads: OpenStreetMap, data as of 22 October 2026. Stations and hospitals: USGS National Structures Dataset, updated up to 6 August 2026.
Homes: 2020 Census housing units by block. Schools: NCES public (2024‑25) and private (2023‑24) school locations.
Scheduled commuter trains
Crossing pages on MBTA Commuter Rail lines show trains scheduled in the MassDOT timetable (GTFS feed of 21 Oct 2026). A crossing counts when it lies within 20 m of a line. Each train's time there is interpolated between the stops on either side. We count both directions on Wednesday 4, Saturday 7 and Sunday 8 Nov 2026, in the week of 2 to 8 Nov. These are scheduled trains, not observed ones. FRA's own passenger count is shown beside them, unchanged. Metra is not included yet.
Reading the records
Missing values are not zero. A crossing with no matched incidents may still have earlier or unreported incidents. Records without usable coordinates remain in the state directory.
Daily train totals combine daytime, nighttime and switching movements only when all three counts are valid. They are not live arrival times.
