How long can a freight train (or any train) block a road? It depends upon which state you're in:

I think some municipalities might have their own laws, but some states don't have a limit.

The states that have laws vary from 5 to 20 mins, but the ones that might be a problem are these states that don't have any time limit:

"14 States that don’t have statutes concerning trains blocking roads​

Fourteen US states have regulations covering trains blocking highways, streets, crossings, or roads. However, some states follow the general rule of thumb of 20 minutes. The states are the following:

• Connecticut
• Georgia
• Hawaii
• Maine
• Maryland
• Missouri
• Nevada
• New Hampshire
• New Jersey
• North Carolina
• New York
• Oregon
• Rhode Island
• Wyoming"
