Brian,
The trains have been addressed here before.  There are plans afoot to 
change the crossing gates so that they meet the traffic safety 
requirements to allow the trains to pass through town without blowing 
their horns when approaching the Queensbury Road crossing.  The survey 
team has been seen at the crossing checking road and sidewalk widths, 
etc. I don't remember the timing, but it is soon as apposed to some ten 
year plan like fixing East-West Hwy/Rt #1 "crossing".

As an aside, there are those that have spoken up in favor of the train 
horns. It seem it puts them to sleep.
