This busy grade crossing handles not only all traffic headed to the Centennial Park industrial area west of here but all traffic headed west through northern Nevada and south through Las Vegas also pass this point. And since this is essentially a yard lead, nobody is moving very quickly. There is plenty of parking on the streets here plus there is a nice park to keep any youngsters occupied if they aren't rabid train nuts like the rest of us.
