Conrail's crossing was malfunctioning...due to lightning taking out a lightning arrester. It was out since Thursday, June 25, 2009...and the batteries were going dead. Seems that everytime I call malfunctions into Conrail...the NS police (dispatch) think it's CN's problem...and send them out first. Well, I called it in initally at 3:07 PM EDT...and they didn't come out until about 9:30 to fix it. The power was back on at 9:50, and it finally was fixed. A southbound NS train came and the signals didn't activate...because of the dead batteries. NS really needs to get in gear or something could happen that they won't like.
