Annotations  If there is a reasonable excuse for not seeing an approaching train, such as an obstruction preventing one from seeing the train or a distraction diverting the attention, the question whether traversing a railroad crossing is reasonable is a matter for the jury. Crewdson v. Burlington Northern R. Co., 234 Neb. 631, 452 N.W.2d 270 (1990). Where train was plainly visible and had emitted a signal within approximately one quarter of a mile from grade crossing which was audible from that distance, this section was clearly applicable to action of decedent prior to collision with train.
