(b) when a crossing gate is lowered or when a human flagman continues to give a signal of the approach or passage of a train;

(c) when a train approaching within approximately 1,500 feet of the crossing emits a signal audible from such distance and such train, by reason of its speed or nearness to such crossing, is an immediate hazard;

(d) when an approaching train is plainly visible and is in hazardous proximity to such crossing; and
