Railroad closures

Some years ago the train line between Gundagai and Tumut closed. This was a government action.
To replace the train they put a bus on the road to continue the service.

At these crossing there were stop for train signs like the one pictured above.
On one of the trips to Gundagai the bus did not stop at the crossing and the police pulled over the bus for not stopping.
The copper asked the driver of the bus why he did not stop for the trains.
The quick thinking bus driver said I am the train!
Just sometimes the law falls behind common sense.
