A different type of video for me!
That's pretty unique! Did you know in barnes in south london there are two active level crossings next to each other?
Interesting. Queen Adelaide near Ely, has three LC in a row (within a mile on the same road)
Craziest LC I know of, is Basford LC in Nottingham. It's sandwiched between a traffic-light controlled crossroads and a tram crossing. All three have their own traffic signals. Stranger still, considering the tram and railway share a level crossing further north up the tracks.
Jumble Lane LC in Barnsley, and Logans Lane LC in Motherwell, have ordinary traffic lights at the crossings (though they both incorporate road junctions)
Why don't they have normal lights?
What's that second train? It has the old double-arrow BR logo on the locomotive.
@@cardboard_is_not_edible Which company is operating it, though.
@@qwertyTRiG its the east lancs heritage railway
@@wilfbm9067 Heritage makes sense. I love the double arrow BR logo. It's very clever.
@@qwertyTRiG it is a great bit of design
Did the level crossing gates opened automatically. No way! But how?
There is a wheel in the signalbox that controls them
Hi
But it's part time signals meaning that they don't work all the time
The only time the railways not in use are on Mondays And Tuesdays
@@euan7310 That's only when there are no passenger services. The railway is often running for other purposes, p-way work, driver experience, Network Rail equipment testing, etc.
It means they are paid for part-time work. xd
