10 Ways the Transcontinental Railroad Changed America | HISTORY

Our Traffic Unit teamed up with Union Pacific Railroad and Grand Prairie PD for a special railroad detail as part of our Safe Roads Initiative. 🚨 This effort focused on enforcing railroad crossing signals to increase awareness and prevent the accidents and injuries that can occur. It was a great opportunity to educate the community and spark important conversations about railroad crossing safety.🤝 #arlingtontx #saferoadsinitiative #arlingtonpd #trafficsafety | Arlington Police Department
