Traffic calmed down over night, but it wasn't completely quiet. I had an 85 mile day to Bedford, PA the next day so I got up at 5 a.m. By 5:45 three trains had come through. The issue is that there are at least two grade crossings in town. By law, the trains have to blow their horns at each one unless a "quiet zone" has been established. Establishing one usually costs the municipality money it doesn't have, which is why you usually don't find them in smaller communities.
