Train activity near an address
One number from 0 to 100 for the trains that pass near an address, built from the train counts railroads report to the Federal Railroad Administration.
Too many checks from this connection. Please wait a minute and try again.
How this number works
We add the trains a day at public crossings within 1 mile. A crossing within a quarter mile counts in full, and its weight falls to zero at 1 mile. Only the busiest weighted crossing counts, so one train is not counted again at each crossing on its line.
We add the middle of the night horn estimate for crossings within half a mile.
The total becomes a number from 0 to 100 on one curve. Higher means more trains near the address, not better or worse.
