I do think that walkability is a good thing and I do think horns should be blown for pedestrian crossings.
I just find it strange that there actually IS a pedestrian crossing in an area where a lot of trouble and construction effort (historically speaking) has been taken to have the trains not crossing with other means of conveyance be it pedestrian, auto, streetcar, horse and buggy, bike,etc.
The fact that the horn blows at night is merely the initial annoyance that started my pondering.
