Railroad crossing compilation video of grade crossings with wayside electronic horn systems. These are installed at quiet zone crossings but not at all. Most quiet zone crossings don't have wayside horns. Wayside horns are disliked by many railfans.
The "X" above wayside horns alert train crews that they are functioning by having a fast pace pulsating flash. The "X" deactivates while a train is passing to dissable the system while a train is passing. Sometimes they malfunction and the horn blows while the train is passing through but also some are set to sound till crossing gates start rising. If the "X" isn't flashing at all and off when the crossing isn't active or activated it means something is wrong with the wayside horn system.
