Wait for the train to go by or for the lights to turn off.
it means there is a pedestrian crossing
The flashing light and ringing bell means that a train is coming and you should stop well short of the crossing until the train has passed by. That is the law, it is illegal not to stop. The train has the right of way.
If there are pedestrians still crossing when the amber light is flashing, the motorist must remain stationary. If there are no pedestrians crossing, the motorist can proceed. (But, be careful of pedestrians taking a chance and attempting to cross when the amber light is flashing - it is best to use caution until the light turns green.)
The flashing red light only illuminates when there is a train coming. There should also be gates there too. It means STOP!
Red=stop red flashing= light is broken, use your judgement in crossing.

Mine went nut. After I filled up the coolant reservoir, the D light stopped flashing. Good luck!!
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.
The bus stops flashing its red light and (if applicable) withdraws its stop sign.
A flashing yellow light means you should drive with caution when approaching and moving through the intersection.
Well it all depends on how long the red lights have been flashing. If you cross when they have been flashing for 10+ seconds there is a risk of you being killed. If it's been flashing for less than 10 seconds you might just escape with your life. I advise you not to try it anyway.
A yellow flashing engine light is an indication that the engine should be checked. The yellow flashing light can because by low water level or low motor oil.
