If you mean the Berajondo derailment? As far as level crossing fail safe goes the nearest public level crossings to the derailment site are the Lowmead Road Level crossing around 8kms to the north and the Mullet Creek road crossing around 20kms south, both crossings are also in different signal sections.
Level crossings had nothing to do with this incident, in fact I'd be more concerned about the timber bridge a couple of hundred metres north of the crash site that gets a nice bounce going on a fully loaded freighter.

The latest one at Cardwell to my knowledge is still at the hands of the ATSB, so I won't go on about that one.
