Oh it's been a while since I've had opportunity to post under this thread, but the stars aligned, I mean the vehicles aligned, in San Francisco this week.   This one certainly qualifies, although in this case it wasn't really a grade crossing but a bus and streetcar occupying the same street.

The second such incident in 3 months also took place in San Francisco.  See the post before this one!   Lightning doesn't strike twice in the same place, but apparently streetcars and buses do.   Read

Today, NJ TRANSIT qualified for this thread when its bus fouled their Bergen County Line tracks at a grade crossing.     More here.

NJ TRANSIT again (by livery), although technically the RIverLINE is operated by a contractor and the bus is driven by a NJT employee.
