Sounds like you were on Meeker or Gowe in downtown Kent. Those Gates are always messing up for no apparent reason. I drove a Kent bus route and got stuck by those Gates for 35 minutes one time with a bunch of crabby riders on board. Over in Renton, the Boeing shuttle train went by at Sunset & Bronson, The gates went down, train went by, gates go up and 3 seconds later they go down, then go up again. almost got a couple cars. Seen that happen twice now. |

It probably happens more than you know. For what its worth, it is illegal to go around crossing arms when they are down whether a train is coming or not! You should call 9-1-1 and notify them of the malfunction and they can contact the R.R. to have them respond for repairs. Or...just wait for the next train and maybe it will reset!! |

There's also a number at the crossing if you don't want to bother the CR's at Valleycom. |
