Nice video! Awesome double pass! Those alarms are buzzing, they also sound like they are starting and stopping at different times but it is probably just the echo
Great video and crossing! That distance to that crossing from where ya live ain't bad, it's about 355 miles/5 hours (right now) from my house to Mobile, AL, if I were to follow I-65 the whole way down. I could save 20 miles if I were to take a slightly more direct way (and avoid Montgomery as a result), but it'd add about half an hour onto the trip. Of course, Alabama is only about 2,000 square miles larger than England itself is, so... I think the furthest I've gone on a daytrip is all the way to Americus, GA, which is a good 270-ish miles/5 hours by road, the only reason it'd take about as long as it would for me to get to Mobile is due to the lack of a direct freeway connection between my area in Americus. Of course, on that day trip I only passed through, I didn't stop anywhere within the city. The furthest place I've stopped on a day trip is Plains, GA, just west of Americus, which is about a 260 mile/5 hour drive on the most direct route. I usually try to contain my typical day trip distances within about a 2.5-3 hour one-way drive (roughly 200 or so miles, if I had to guess). Beyond that gets a bit annoying, especially for railfanning purposes. What's probably the furthest crossing away from my house that I've ever filmed is easily Holgate Street Number 3 in Seattle, WA: a 2,508 mile/38 hour drive from my house on the most direct route!
Thank you! I have been further than from where I live to this crossing as of now. The furthest you've filmed from home being that far really puts it into perspective how small the UK is to the USA.
Some stunning shots here! This is one of my favourites in Northumberland. Gotta bring up how good that angle on the thumbnail is, really creative use of the skirt-less barriers to your advantage Is this the end to the north trip? :(
Thank you very much! I'm so glad you liked that shot :) There's quite a bit from this trip I've not released or scheduled; future videos. I'm also planning to go quite a long way up north in the near future too. I have one more from this trip up in the North East going up tomorrow, and I think I've saved the best till last :)
I always thought of a crossing exactly like this and thought there’s none like it but this proves me wrong
Been waiting for this crossing! Outstanding shots :)
Thank you very much! I really wanted to make here in the time I had, and I did.
I like that the barriers have no skirting on them and also great videos! Keep up the great work SELC & TC
Thanks very much! I've always found these skirtless ones quite cool too, especially these ones as they're quite long, new, and still skirtless
@@SouthEastLevelCrossings What are you favourite types of level crossings?
@@Tyler3231f I quite like these full-barrier ones personally.
Excellent video and crossing 👍
Thank you very much!

It's because they are so far away it takes longer for the sound to travel
@@levelcrossingcreations3731 i know
Thank you! I really like the fast one tbh. The crossing's length would make it seem that way as the sound needs a little time to travel.
Brilliant Videos! Like this skirtless, long barrier crossing! 👍🏻👍🏻
Many thanks! I love it

@@SouthEastLevelCrossings ok. I will be sure to check it out as soon as the clock says 15:45
“Wait a minute, something’s not right” 👴🏻
This has no skirts
Nice!
Thanks!

where are you off to for the next video?
The trips I do and the videos I upload happen quite separately as I go by a backlog of videos. You'll see them as they come.
