Quieting the rails in O.C.
Will it be a little quieter in O.C.? The Times' David Reyes says maybe around rail tracks: Orange County transportation planners approved a $60 million plan for quieter railroad crossings -- hopefully eliminating ear-splitting train horns -- at crossings throughout the county on Monday. The plan calls for adding gates, traffic signal technology and other upgrades to 53 crossings, including 16 in the city of Orange.
What a great idea--and what a doggone shame it has to be paid for at the county level.

"...traffic signal technology..."
Get ready for those fake train horns!
