While railfanning in Bath, PA, I saw a man standing in the middle of the tracks. At first, I thought, "maybe he'll get out of the way when he gets closer," but I got concerned when the crossing activated, so I told him to get off of the tracks myself. Also included in this video are some other catches between June 2019 and July 2019. 0:00 NS SD40-2 #3414 and NS Ex-CR SD40-2 #3476 approach a railroad crossing in Bath, PA. There is a man standing in the middle of the tracks while the crossing activates, but luckily, he decided to get off the tracks at the last minute.
