(A) When a clearly visible electric or mechanical signal device gives warning of the immediate approach of a train or other on-track equipment.
(B) When a crossing gate is lowered or when a human flagman gives or continues to give a signal of the approach or passage of a train or other on-track equipment.
(C) When a railroad train or other on-track equipment approaching within 1,500 feet of a highway crossing emits an audible signal and because of speed or nearness to the crossing is an immediate hazard.
