The signs at Weaverton have been replaced. They now state under the NPS Logo:

Notice: C&O Canal NHP Vehicles and Personnel Are Prohibited from Using This Crossing
Trains are no Longer Required to Sound Horns When Approaching

CSX is now claiming Weaverton as their private crossing but as of now, the public has not been banned. However, they have removed the minimal safety --rr horns and signs, making the crossing even more dangerous.

The CCA, AT and RTCA (Anne Oneill) are taking this very seriously and are working very hard to find a safe solution; the minimum of which will be a recreation easement.

Will keep you posted.
