• Plan crossing is called level crossing in English.
• The body had the wrong opening date.
• A few things i copyedited, take a look at the diff.

Can't find any issues with this, so congratulations with a good article. Arsenikk ^(talk) 23:34, 6 November 2010 (UTC)  Thanks for the review. I do actually have some questions myself:

• Which is better: "slippery" or "icy"?
  • I would say icy, as it implies that it is slippery, while slippery could be caused by other things (leaves, oil, water, etc.) Arsenikk ^(talk) 17:34, 7 November 2010 (UTC)
• Is the photo ok? I use Holstein everyday, so it won't be any probs taking a new one. ;)
  • I's okay, but not great. There is some overexposure in part of the picture due to the light being in the wrong direction, and the photo isn't straight. Personally I would try to take it more at an angle from the tracks (so show a longer section), but I don't know how easy it is to get at. Do as you wish. But the more, the merrier.

• Is there a better expression for "two young lads"
  • Sounds a bit old-fashioned, but otherwise fine. It is quite accurate if their ages are not known. Arsenikk ^(talk) 17:34, 7 November 2010 (UTC)
    • "Children" or "youngsters"? Related to the same accident, the wording "sliding [...] in a steering sled" is confusing too. What is "sliding"? From the context, it sounds like they were sledding--our article there says it's different from "sliding", but does not provide a ref or link to anything about this different activity and the article here does say they were using a "steering sled".
