What is a railroad crossing controlled by flashing lights and or crossing gates?
Active crossing. A highway-railroad grade crossing that has flashing lights with or without crossing gates is called an "active railroad crossing". This is because it is activated automatically by the approach of a train, and shut off as the train passes. In the US, there are crossings that may use flashing lights that are not activated automatically, but nearly all were retired in the US by 1990. The watchman controlled flashing light grade crossing in southern New Jersey made headlines when it was retired in 1990, as the last of its kind in the country.
