Dungeness Road (Dungeness) Level Crossing, Kent (27/07/24)
Dungeness Road Level Crossing is on the infamous Romney Hythe and Dymchurch Railway (RH&DR). It has had its original GEC halogen wigwags replaced with halogen NRS wigwags. The German barriers are seen again here, the barrier boom lights once again failed to illuminate. This crossing concludes my RHDR video uploads, we take a brief break from Kent tomorrow. Thank you for watching this series.

Williamson Road (Lydd-on-Sea) Level Crossing, Kent (27/07/24)

Williamson Road Level Crossing is on the infamous Romney Hythe and Dymchurch Railway (RH&DR). This crossing is the last of the three that I consider to be the "Lydd-on-Sea section". The sticks from the St. Andrew's Crosses (dating back to when this crossing was an AOCL) can be seen on the top of the wigwags. This is the last copy and paste crossing, moving onto the Dungeness pair next week! RHD...

Hull Road Level Crossing is on the infamous Romney Hythe and Dymchurch Railway (RH&DR). This crossing alongside the rest on the line was once AOCL before German Barriers were fitted. The crossing unexpectedly has a broken amber too! Funny thing is I had said to Riley just before the activation "broken amber please." The boom lights also fail to light up...

Baldwin Road Level Crossing is on the infamous Romney Hythe and Dymchurch Railway (RH&DR). This crossing alongside the rest on the line was once AOCL before German Barriers were fitted - however the longer one snapped and was replaced with a new SPX boom (that's cable tied on)!. It's a neat little crossing with Red No.9 Winston Churchill making yet another appearance. The summer sun lights it w...

The first of a few from Kent! Botolphs Bridge Level Crossing is the crossing closest to Hythe on the infamous Romney Hythe and Dymchurch Railway (RH&DR). It retains GEC Mellor halogen wigwags which are due to be replaced after the replacement of Eastbridge to LEDs in early 2025. A date for the LEDs at Botolphs Bridge is not yet known. This crossing alongside the rest on the line was once AOCL b...
(Halogen Wigwags) Manea Level Crossing, Cambridgeshire (18/07/24)
Просмотров 16921 день назад
This incredibly rare MCB level crossing in the Fenlands is the last halogens standing on this line and indeed, one of the last in the whole of the UK. Quiet alarms are sported here with all of the equipment showing its age of 2003 if I remember correctly. HGVs are common here and the heat was almost unbareable here! I did enjoy my ride behind Electra number 91127 to Peterborough to get the trai...
Welney Road Level Crossing, Cambridgeshire (18/07/24)
Просмотров 11828 дней назад
If there was an award for the least interesting level crossing in the country, this may just be it. 4 Unipart Rail LED wigwags, all centred, 2 Smiths Barriers and 2 Apellos. That's it... Manea is very close by and semaphore signals are still in use which makes up for it. Also this crossing is on Wisbech Road and a 6 mile drive from Welney...

Washstones Level Crossing, Leicestershire (02/07/24)
Great video and crossing! Interesting how the gate lights there failed to activate as well. In one of the cases where I've seen none of the gate lights activating, it was because someone had cut the wire to them at a crossing in my area.
Thank you! Another loose connection here I believe.
Great video as always 👍
Thank you so much!
My favourite crossing and locomotive on the line rounds up a brilliant series of videos from this line from you!
Cheers! It's a proper cool crossing here, I hope to return in the foreseeable!
Broken barrier lights? Nice video!
Yep, second boom lights failure in the RHDR series.
Great video! The equipment there looks so much like a crossing you'd find on one of the mainlines over there, IMHO.
Great video and crossing!
Great video and crossing! What makes the RH&DR "infamous"?
It's probably, arguably, the most well-known heritage railway in the UK
@EastAngliaLevelCrossingsUK Dunno why that'd make it "infamous" rather than just "famous" though.
Great video and crossing 👍
Such a decent crossing! Nice Vid!
Very nice crossing here. I do love how the whistle sounded the instant the crossing activated 😂
Great video and crossing!
Great video and crossing 👍
It is remarkable how similar these crossings around Lydd-on-Sea are. I honestly can't think of any other crossings that are so close to identical!
Great video as always 👍
My favourite tone started at 43 seconds 😁
My Goodness, seems Romney Sands wasn’t the only one with a broken amber light on your visit! Great Vid!
Thank you! Yeah haha, Seaview had a broken red too a few weeks later.
Great video and crossing! That's definitely a nice little crossing there, TBQH. I like how they have that one extra-long arm to cover the sidewalk. I feel like they could've (and probably should've) installed a third gate mech there to cover the other side of the sidewalk at the crossing there.
Thank you very much! It's a cool crossing, There's a few examples of larger crossings without a third barrier to be fair, the crossing is also audiable enough.
Another one?? Nice one 👍
Thank you! Yeah haha
Great video as always 👍
Thank youuu!
Great video and crossing! IIRC, wasn't this the last AOCL crossing on the RH&DR?
Cheers! Yeah you're correct, lasted much later than the rest, a lack of space honestly, and it was right next to a station so line speed was very very slow compared to the others.
Great video! Wonder what caused the gate lights not to work?
Thank you! I hear these type of barriers often have bad connections, you'll see it happen again on the last video of the RHDR series!
ANOTHER BROKEN AMBER IN ONE DAY?!? Wow
Yeahhh, crazy innit, struck very lucky with this line when I filmed it.
Great video! 👍
Cheers!
I love uk level crossings!
Great video as always 👍
Thank you very much!
when is whistleham gonna be released?
Unknown right now
The crossing.
Great video and crossing! Has the reflector in the right-hand red light of the left-hand wigwag there gone bad/broken? It doesn't seem like it's as bright as the other lights there.
Thanks! It was indeed dim, it has not been fixed yet either. I'm guessing your theory is correct.
Another Great video 👍
Thanks again!
Gotta love the 'tailring' here. Adds something of interest to this otherwise 'copy and paste' install at least!
Agreed, surprised these barriers did them! Especially with other systems such as multi-trains is pretty poor on these crossings.
Great video as always 👍
Cheers!
It just looks so strange seeing both barriers lower at different times and speeds.
I have to agree, definitely my favourite of the copy and paste ones though
I used to live there😊
Great video as always 👍
Thanks!
Great Video!
Cheers!
Nicely done. The old Triumph motor in the second clip was great. 👍🏻
Thank you! It really made the experience of filming this line all that little bit better!
Beatiuful video ,greetings 🙋♂️🚂
Thank you! Hiii
Great video! Still ain't used to seeing LEDs on the RH&DR, lol.
Cheers! It's weird isn't it!
Great video and crossing 👍
Thank you very much!
Great video as always 👍
Thanks again!
Another cracking shot from the RH&DR! I never knew about that streetview with the crossing mid upgrade.
Cheers! It's a nice little easter egg of the line (the Google SV)
Epic vid!
Thank you!
Awesome Video!
Many Thanks!
Great video and crossing! Shame the old halogen lights there are gone now. I do understand they definitely needed replacement, but I do think the worn-out look of the old lights there did look pretty neat. Interesting how some of those mellor wigwags had the corners of the newer (and custom?) tacked-on borders rounded to match the profiles of the original wigwag borders, while others were left with them looking rather square.
Thank you! The wigwags here were very interesting, shame to see them go.
Great video and crossing!
Thank you very much!
Amazing Videos!
Thanks!
I like how that little old car was beeping at the train's whistle in the second clip 😅 Lovely vids!
Thanks! It was really cool to see the blue car alongside the train haha😃
Beatiuful landcascape ,very nice video ,greetings 🚂⚡👋🔔
Many thanks! It's amazing here. Hii!
Great video as always 👍
Thanks again!
