Operation Lifesaver --Railroad Crossing Safety Song "Stop Look and Listen" by Ray Tutaj Jr. 

From an old retired Santa Fe Railway Engineer, a perfect song for everyone to listen to. The locomotive Engineer see it all happening, I hit a new 1949 Lincoln in 1950 with an old Baldwin Steamer, no survivors in the car, the Engineers have to live with these, I've known some Engineers have commit suicide. A great song. Don :-)

This is my son's favorite song, he watches it on repeat sometimes all day!

You did a perfect song Ray! I almost seriously hurt or killed a family. I was a train diver in texas and I was doing a emergency stop because a car went in front of me. So i use this song to warn my kids! Nice song!

Seeing a freight train rumbling through in person is just incredible but it's also a showing of how mighty these Titans are. They can wipe you out in an instant

Glad you like the tune. Just maybe it will save some lives. The message needs to be pounded into the public in every way possible.

I LOVE IT ! I've been Teaching Railroad Safety for almost 20 years , started w/ WAOL in 1993. It is sometimes very hard to get the message across, Trespasser Education is sometimes the toughest! I've saved many lives out on the line. we've lost allot to just out for a stroll , and of course suicides. Thank You Ray The Railroad Ranger

If you're in the way you can kiss your life goodbye ... So true

I remember this song from my childhood

Idk why I love this so much

This man is spitting straight up FACTS.

Yes, good beat to the song! Stop, Look, and Listen and Live!! Says it all~)

I have a feeling the National Safety Council would appreciate what you've done. They've teamed with Operation Lifesaver to keep people safe around railroads and trains.

I’m not really in to country but this was my favorite song back when i was a kid.

I used to listen all the time it never gets old

You are very welcome! Glad you liked it. Safety first. Ray

I used to listen to this when I was super young

Hey thank you very much. It is good to hear that the song has an effect on people. Thanks for stopping in and listening! Peace, Ray

If anyone wants to know, the bell playing is a 2nd generation safetran mechanical bell

awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

2:32 - 2:35 That's why you should always expect 2 trains instead of only 1 at those crossings that have double tracks because 1 train could be hiding another train.

This is my favorite song

Stop, Look, & Listen!

Stop,look,listen 🚂

Yes, The grocery/candy store was in our family. My Grandpa's brother owned the store from the 1940s to about 1980. Lot's of memoeries of us kids going to the store after swimming at Hegeler park. It once was a grocery store and folks could buy meats. Later it was more of a candy store. Thanks! Ray

i like music and trains so this was perfect!

Glad to see this back up on RU-vid. Nice job Ray!

Yes, if you need to get a hold of me just send me a message. Glad you liked the song!

@Exzeluke THanks! Glad you like it. It was a fun song to put together.

I’m using my mom’s account for my RU-vid comments but when I first saw this song when I was like three I was scared of it because of the train crashes in a little girl looking out her window see the train coming as her dad pool is right around the crossing gates then when I watched it as like eight years old I loved it

You need more subscribers because this song is amazing

nice song ray. it shows something. Stop Look Listen. i know i will wen i start driving.

Great song!

Stop, Look, Listen and Live A moving train does not forgive Think twice before crossing that gate A second later and it's too late Once you ride onto that track It's a one way trip from which you won't come back When tons of steel meet human flesh Steel will win, no need to guess It's against the law and common sense Don't ever cross a gate or fence Wait right there it won't be that long Take a chance and you'll be forever gone It's a game that you cannot win Few have lived to ever try it again So listen up and play by the rules Taking risks is a game for fools Look both ways and stay alive There may be others in the car you drive When you hear a train that's passing through Remember they've got a right to live, too So Stop, Look, Listen and Live A moving train does not forgive Take it slow, don't be in a rush Or your dreams and more that train will crush © 2017 - 2019

@kelsi6273 Thank you so much! I look back on this and think i did a pretty good job, so i posted it again. Even if it helps one person to be more careful it was all worth it. Take care, Ray

Also The Ending was a Test

This is the only reason why I subscribe to you

@raytutajjr could you please make a music video about Brightline

I LOVE THIS SONG

i love it too

3:31 that wchays gate mech is really fast

nice Amtrak f40

Good old IAIS

really awesome video !:)

If you're in the way you can kiss your life goodbye 👋 This is true. People won't obey when trains are around That's why we're ain't going anywhere with tons of people around this world 😓, not obeying the railroad crossing signs or looking both ways 😓😓 Only because they are in a hurry instead of giving 2 minutes for a train to pass. It's not that hard

who is still watching this in 2021

Thanks very much!

My Gym Teachers: Stop Sit Look Listen Him: Stop Look Listen Live

This is terrific! It's such a different style - love the electric guitar and drums, and the stronger deeper voice. You should do more like this. The black outfit - I kept thinking "He should be singing Johnny Cash songs". :-D Cheers to you and your brother! --exzeluke

My childhood too!

for me i could care less if the gates are down...i will always wait for a train no matter wat..i dont mind as i am a big fan of trains & dont mind the wait @ all.....

You Could Spend All Day Telling some People That, And it just Goes in One Ear and Out the Other, Like They have No Brain in Between.
