That's a looooooooooooooooong train

Got stuck at a train crossing this morning, and it has to be the longest train I've ever had to wait for. It was most likely coming up from the port of Long Beach, which gets ships coming in from just about everywhere.

One of my co-workers explained to me the cause is a buildup of stuff in the gutters that never gets flushed by a regular rain.
