How does this yellow diamond sign differ from the red-and-white railway crossbuck?
Correct answer: It gives advance warning that a railway crossing is ahead
Why
The yellow diamond with a railway-crossing symbol is an advance warning. Reduce speed as needed, look and listen for trains, and be ready to obey the controls at the crossing. The red-and-white crossbuck marks the crossing itself, while a separate panel can show the number of tracks. Do not enter until the tracks and the space beyond are clear. The PEI handbook includes these signs for travel outside the province.
