Description: Crossing #592413C is a 4-way railroad crossing between CP Allen and CP Burn, at milepost 33 that crosses the intersection of Merchants Square Mall, S 12th Street and Vultee St diagonally on Norfolk Southern's Reading Line. A line that starts at Bethlehem Storage Yard, splits off from the Lehigh Line near the Allentown Yard, travelling along the Lehigh River, then joining the end of the Lehigh Line at CP Burn, before going through Allentown, Emmaus, Macungie and a few other cities before joining the Harrisburg Line. The crossing is equipped with two Safetran E-Bells, one at Merchants Square Mall, the other at Vultee Street. It also has a cantilever at Merchants Square Mall and four gate mechanisms, the fastest of which is on the Merchants Square Mall side, and the slowest of which is on the Vultee St side. The masts at S 12th Street do not have bells, though I think they did at one time. This crossing has a weird glitch where the gates wait over a minute after the train passes to deactivate.

He reversed just in time as NS #9855 (C40-9W), NS #9930 (C40-9W), NS #7565 (ES40DC) haul an eastbound intermodal train that's so dirty, mud and leaves flew off and stuck to my arm, on Main 1 29:08 Two Hi-Rails head westbound on Main 1 31:08 NS #9967 (C44-9W) hauls a fast autorack train that slams and vibrates loudly as it hits the welded joint. Driver waved at me.
