This is expected to bring relief for San Jose residents who have, for years, endured being jolted awake by blaring train horns. "Union Pacific had every right to do that.

This means trains will no longer sound their horns at street crossings, between 10 p.m. and 7 a.m., except in emergencies.
"They inspected signs, markings, and other safety features. The inspection notes called for some minor additions to be made, as well as some tree pruning. Our maintenance crews quickly jumped into action to take care of those items," the city's release added."Part of the reason that this stretch of railroad qualified for a quiet zone is because it is just one set of tracks.
