Railroad crossing monitoring system

To promptly grasp the location of a railroad crossing where power fault is occurring.SOLUTION: Railroad facilities for a railroad are configured to be subjected to backup by lead batteries so as to enable a railroad crossing to operate even when a blackout occurs. However, since the lead batteries have merely a function to backup the power supply, it is uncertain from a remote site whether the blackout is continued or is recovered. Moreover, it is difficult for a maintenance worker to grasp the railroad crossing where the blackout is occurring, and such a worker must confirm the situation at a site. Hence, upon discharging of a BBU 30, a monitoring device 40 is enabled to take out information from the BBU 30 by a communication or signal line. By taking out the information from the BBU 30 in this way, the state of the BBU 30 can be confirmed from a remote site, and when there is a BBU 30 that is in a discharged state, the monitoring device 40 also can identify the installation location of such a BBU, and notify a terminal 50 of the identified installation location. This enables the maintenance worker to grasp the installation location, and to immediately go to such an installation location.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 4
