Does anyone know why the train was stopped in Charlotte from 4 till 7? I woke up to see the advisory from the country to avoid the area for closed crossings. A wb woke me up about 20m ago moving very slow. The crossing in front of the house is very rough for the trains and if there isn't enough tension on the drawbar they adjust going over the road so all the banging grabbed my attention that something was going on. 0715
