Warnings Sought At Rail Crossing An engineer has been detailed by the state railroad commission to Orange to study a proposal that adequate warning signals be placed on the Southern Pacific tracks crossing Tustin avenue, which now is a state highway. Miss Ella Ellinghausen of North Tustin avenue circulated the petitions which called upon the commission to order installation of adequate safety devices as warning to motorists. She declares that, since the Tustin avenue route was linked directly with Santa Ana canyon via the Olive cutoff, traffic has more than tripled. The demand for action was prompted by a recent fatal accident at the crossing, Miss Ellinghausen said.
