track l.' et e' right angle, it may c'oss at ifei'ious angles. However, the barriers Ll are el# ways jleoed .parallel to the track l., so that the pesseggfe'e '5 and Y on each side o1 the 'track will eleohe' peifellel 'with the track 1 eo that the Vehiel'e in' its passage through the passages 6 7 will he pointed up the track at .one tmeeiid. down the track another.` `When 'the 'vehicle-if; approaching from the opposite cllifeetion 1t follows the arrows al and posses through passages 6 enel in e, sumlor manner es tht eet forth above.
The invention having' been eet forth what is claimed .new zuid useful s:-
A allyoed erossmg c :ompnsing e road crossing a railroad at an angle, said road letion to the railroad track the parallel setl tion adjacent ther ailiood track being spaced assume positions in its course to the railroad track So that the operator will have ai clear ,View up and down the truck, the parallel Section adjacent the track being 5pm-of! 'from the track allowing1 the operator to stop the vehicle if a train is approaching at :i point spaced from the track, vseid parallel sections of the'roed being separated 'from each other h'y e relatively narrow barrier thereby Caueihg vehicles to quickly eseume positions in the parallel sections.
