In factorio, how do I make a safe railway crossing? Such that the trains will stop if a player is crossing the tracks.

One way to do it would be to connect a gate to your train signals. When the player opens the gate, it should turn the signals red, stopping any train.

You would also have to stop the gate from opening if a train is already past the signal but not past the gate.

This. This is easiest/best way, Imo.

Good luck and have fun!!
