Kalyan WCAG1 #21977 rushes towards Karjat with a long BCNA rake. I was standing at a Level crossing and the loco pilot was continously honking to ensure that i do not jump in front of the loco at the last moment!

However, I did honk to keep people aware that train is approaching. Instead of loud, continuous horn, its is better to sound shorter taps.
