BNSF to Reinstall Crossing Signals

BNSF, formerly known as Burlington Northern/Santa Fe Railway, is reinstalling active warning signals at several locations, including Main Street in Parkville. The signs were removed last week due to damage concerns from the impending flood waters. Director of Public Affairs, Andy Williams confirmed to The Luminary this morning that due to "safety concerns", the company is currently installing the crossing signals, but cautioned that they may be removed at any point. Several community members have questioned whether or not this indicates the flood may only reach minimum estimates.
