    Yesssssssss. Shutting down an airport is how you fight without killing and without just standing on a corner with a sign.

      Every railway crossing has a sign with a number to call if something is on the tracks.

      It would be a shame if someone called to report vehicles stuck and had all the trains stop. I’m sure people would be too busy to stay and call them back when the vehicle had gotten itself unstuck before someone came out to check.

        I’ve never seen a sign that’s had that at railroad crossings…

          The Emergency Notification Systems (ENS) sign gives the public critical emergency contact information at every highway-rail grade crossing.

          Usually in urban areas. I’ve seen them. I dunno if it’s on every crossing though

                Ohhhh ok, I was picturing a much larger sign, like visible enough that you didn’t have to know it was there, and didn’t have to inspect it up close… Ya know, like in case of emergency?
