Solution

1. Railway engines run on steam, diesel or electricity. Steam and diesel engines create smoke. This causes air pollution.

2. Road transport vehicles (e.g., cars, buses, trucks, etc.) stop at the level crossing. They wait until the train passes. Most of people keep their engines on during this time. This also creates smoke, causing air pollution.
