YSK: If your vehicle gets stuck on railroad tracks look for a blue sign. It contains an emergency number and a Crossing ID to immediately halt oncoming trains.
Why YSK: If you call 911 the dispatcher has to figure out exactly where you are and then contact the specific railroad company which takes precious time you might not have. Every railroad crossing has a blue Emergency Notification System sign. If you call the number on that sign and give them the specific alphanumeric Crossing ID you are speaking directly to the railroad's dispatch. They can instantly radio any trains heading toward your exact location to stop potentially saving your life and preventing a massive derailment. Always get everyone out of the car first then make the call.
