General Information - Railroad Crossing Transactions (RCQ/RCR)
This section describes the Railroad Crossing transactions which provide Nlets users with the location and type of railroad road crossing at a specific location.
The purpose of the Railroad Crossing transaction is to obtain pertinent information related to a railroad crossing, such as location and emergency contact phone numbers. The inquiry will be based upon a Railroad Crossing Identification number. The RCQ message key is run to destination "NL" on the Nlets system.
The response will include information on the location of the crossing, including geospatial coordinates, the operating company and other emergency contact phone numbers, and details about the crossing itself.
