We had a badly situated crossing in Brampton.
East of the station, the single line divided to run for 10 or 15 miles as double. At the west end of the platform was a level crossing followed by a flat crossing with CPR and a few crossovers. Evening rush hour GO Trains would leave the single track, stop in the platform, and then leave. Not infrequently, there would be an eastbound freight waiting or approaching.
Quite often the freight would arrive at the crossing just after the GO had cleared it. You can imagine the rest -- usually not vehicles as there were crossing gates.
