    What a crossing... Signs tagged or damaged, wigwags damaged as well and very mossy, lights destroyed, some of them don't have any bulbs. All that in a line that looks like it has never seen any train, so the crossing hasn't "closed" once (in quotation because no barriers here!) All that in the middle of nowhere, aside from the river just before it. Quite a shame, and quite sad to see.

    • @UKLevelCrossingsChannel

      Yeah, indeed quite a sad sight. The railway line stops only a mere 200 metres from this crossing. I don't think a single train used this crossing.

    The reason why Ham Hall railway is no longer in use, is because first of all,it is named after the country house the railway was built on, and secondly Ham Hall was also a colliery, and the reason it was closed, either the coal mine closed, or it was one of the railways that Breeching closed

    Now that is pretty cool! Also quite tragic at the same time in that it has never been used. Interesting how most of the red/amber light covers are missing, which makes the crossing look really tired, but also really interesting at the same time. If I'm ever up that way, I'll have a look myself, as this peice of infrastructure is pretty iconic and one-of-a-kind!

      The railway line seen in the video was built for a power station, however I don't think it was ever built and is now a large industrial estate. As a result, I don't think there will be any need for this line at all now.

    That's truly a waste of good equipment. It's only hope now is preservation (unlikely) or reactivation and finishing of the spur for industrial purposes (can't even describe how unlikely). Good call on not pushing the plungers for the crossing. If those rail signals are still on and working, it likely means all of the wiring is ready, and the quiet nature preserve would have had an odd noise join: A Yodalarm.

    • @UKLevelCrossingsChannel
      @UKLevelCrossingsChannel  3 года назад +2

      Unfortunately both of those things are very unlikely as there's now not much to preserve at this crossing, and the line was built for a power station which is now a large industrial estate. I was tempted to see what happened but as you said, the chance the equipment might still work was why I didn't tamper with the plungers.

    Wow, that's a strange crossing. It reminds me very much of the crossing in Shoeburyness. You probably haven't heard of it but in Shoebury high street, right next to the train station, there is a single track railway that crosses the road. It has manual gates, which I imagine the driver uses, and the railway disappears into a field and goes behind some houses. Every night between 22:30 and 00:30 a train carrying ammunition to the MOD place in Shoberyness uses it. When I go there to visit some family, I can hear it's horn just as I am getting ready for bed. I was wondering if you knew about it or wanted to film it. I have walked over the tracks many times but I have never stayed up to film it.
    Kind regards,
    Boom😄.

    It looks like something out of a post apocalypse film! My guess is that they thought the line would be completed at some point so they left the crossing equipment there ready for that situation. Since the track was laid a train could theoretically come along even though there was nowhere to go. They didn't think it was worth paying someone to remove the equipment because maybe next year they will need it. But no one maintained it so it degraded. Leaving the euipment there might have protected the cables though so at least they might be possible to use even if the equipment needed replacing. Or its possible that it just fell through the cracks. It might not be on the crossing database since the line was not open so no one realised it needed to be removed.

      In addition to the crossing lights, there was railway signals either side of the crossing which were still turned on.

    strange to see farm gates at a crossing! sad to see a crossing in this condition and im guessing its never even seen a train and complete with signals.

    • @UKLevelCrossingsChannel
      @UKLevelCrossingsChannel  4 года назад +2

      Unfortunately not, the line was never completed so this crossing was never used by a train. The whole crossing and even the signals are still here. What's even more weird is that the signals are still turned on.

      Yeah they are quite dirty, however there are plastic shades and colour lenses missing from the lights so it would be very difficult to restore them fully. They will probably eventually be scrapped some time in the future.
