    this older crossing is more fitting with the railway unlike the new one

    • @UKLevelCrossingsChannel
      @UKLevelCrossingsChannel  3 месяца назад

      Yeah, I guess this crossing did fit with the heritage theme, although, unlike the trains, it was life expired and needed replacing.

    Nice one Jamie. I've been to film here before and it's quite an old crossing but still in good condition. I also like the halogens and E2S sounders.

    That warning bell means everyone has to get out at level crossings if the train has passed the barriers will up and you can go everywhere

      Some level crossings do that to say thanks for waiting but is quite rare as it does not happen very often

    • @joemercedeschannel196
      @joemercedeschannel196 2 месяца назад

      That only occurs to AHB Level Crossings.
      They have a 'Thanks for waiting flash' when one barrier goes slower than the other one.

    • @SouthWestCrossingsUK
      @SouthWestCrossingsUK 10 дней назад

      It doesnt actually mean 'thanks for waiting' it is actually just a slight fault with the barriers that causes it to reactivate

  • @eliottjeary1492
    @eliottjeary1492 6 лет назад

    I thought the line was semaphore signaled, whats the reason for the colour lights before the crossing?

    • @UKLevelCrossingsChannel
      @UKLevelCrossingsChannel  6 лет назад

      To allow trains to safely enter the station, and with shunting trains, which points have been set in which direction. There is also a white flashing light which is active whilst the level crossing is in the safe lowered position.

    • @UKLevelCrossingsChannel
      @UKLevelCrossingsChannel  7 лет назад +2

      This is a private heritage railway line, so yes, steam and diesel locomotives run up and down this line as its a tourist attraction and not a mainline railway.

    • @FlashingRedProductions
      @FlashingRedProductions 8 лет назад +2

      Well, this crossing is on a heritage railway after all so you can't expect crossings to have new equipment such as LEDs. Northwood has VERY mossy lights but have only been there for 5 years, but it has apparently got halogen Pike Wigwags.
      The crossing is halogen because it is likely to suit the railway line more than LED lights

      pretty much, I think a single barrier could cover all of the road if cleverly designed.

    • @UKLevelCrossingsChannel
      @UKLevelCrossingsChannel  7 лет назад +2

      Yeah. You're probably right. Although Network Rail are upgrading many half barrier crossings to full barrier crossings all over the UK.
