I was pleased last year to work with my colleagues in the State of Illinois to secure funding for a critical grade separation at 63rd and/or 65th and Harlem in Chicago.

The notion that the way a community experiencing blocked grade crossings should try to solve the problem is to fill out a report and submit it to FRA or call the railroad and hope the railroad will unblock the crossing is not a solution.

I really think we should fund ARPA-E (Advanced Research Projects Agency-Energy) to a much greater extent to help.

I understand the role that the sounding of the train horn plays in notifying people a train is approaching in maintaining safety near a crossing.
