Video 2 of 2 videos in total 2 of 2 and that’s it till next time.
You must be the luckiest man alive to catch that 😂😂
UK Level Crossings Channel I do mate haha, couldn’t believe it when that happened. 😁
I know right! The only unusual thing I've seen in my trainspotting life is misuse at Lincoln Central. And that, over there, seems to be normal 😂😂
AHBs should have cctv and a hangman
@@LevelCrossingFan92 it needs to become an ABCL (Automatic Barrier Crossing Locally monitored)
Definitely a malfunction caused by the ex-London Underground D Stock. Despite this, the vehicles should not have crossed when the red lights are flashing. Lesson learned perhaps?
Epalvosh Yeah also do you know if these trains are electric seeing as it didn’t sound diesel, and yeah bet he felt stupid and knew he had been recorded. 😂
@@JTCrossingsUKThe London Northwestern Railway class 230 uses small diesel generators to power the existing electric motors.
I've not ever seen that before! It may have malfunctioned but the amount of people who carried on driving through! Like you said, lucky he had roof bars on his car that stopped it hitting the roof!
morthren I don’t think it’s a rare thing to happen, prob just rare to see and catch on camera, and yeah would of left a nasty dent in his roof the barrier does weigh a bit and it did hit it quite hard.
Not only did you catch such a misuse on camera, you caught it in a closure that wasn't meant to happen! That is one thing that everyone is jealous of you catching!
When crossings had big heavy gates, nobody tried to get through when they were closing. Bring back the gates!
Bloody hell! Can’t say I’ve ever seen anything like this caught on camera (in the UK), let alone seeing this happening myself! 😶
Great catch! 😁👍
Will Scriven I nearly caught it once before at church lane in North York’s, but the crossing hangmanned, but I bet it’s quite common in the UK, you just don’t see it happen, I did see it happen with a lorry at Wilford when I was a lot younger when I was passing over the crossing on route to grantham. But other than that I can’t say I’ve seen it happen anywhere else.
@@JTCrossingsUK I've seen that in your misuse video, and in the hangmans and malfunctions compilation.
@@JTCrossingsUK 1:22 in the US, we call those people Darwin Candidates
Nice catch Joe! I know it’s a while go but I’d say it’s a malfunction unless the train stopped on the treadle or something?
Wowzer that was a great capture on video: the barrier and the malfunction. You were in the right place at the right time!
Glenn Cooney Ikr, just goes to show how stupid some people can be.
@@JTCrossingsUK you don't say 😂😂
Great video Joe and nice catch of the car getting hit by the barrier. That's a first I've seen that happen. Not the same with obstacle detection
Rachel Harper I still don’t think that the crossing would of stopped if it was OD seeing as the car wasn’t far enough in the crossing for the raiders to obstruct it, having saying that there were lots of other cars crossing as the crossing was lowering so it might of done.
Great video and catch! At least they didn't break it off, though stuff like this is why we have the "Crossing Gate Contact" thread on Mike's Railroad Crossing Forum, lol. Wonder if that was a tail-ring malfunction?
freebrickproductions Wouldn’t be surprised, the train prob sat on the deactivation treadle, and set it off again. The blue car on the other side was close to taking off the barrier too if you didn’t notice.
OMG, I should of commented way before then, I’ve never seen a barrier hit a car before and you managed to capture it 🙂
Nothing wrong with the operation of that crossing. The lights were flashing long before the barrier started to come down.
Thermo Man No it’s because the crossing went back down again just after the train had past then nothing came.
@@JTCrossingsUK No - the crossing alarm system was working PERFECTLY.
The "train" crossed and the signals ended it's cycle.
However - the TRAIN stopped barely CLEAR of the signal circuit, which was reactivated IMMEDIATELY as the train's brakes allowed the coupling slack to "expand" the end of the train - back into the signal circuit. thereby "triggering" as if an approaching train.
It was the rear end of the stopped train that was FOULING the signal circuit itself.
Nothing malfunctioning and thus the sigs & lights AND a "delayed lowering" of the barrier arms - were as normal.
The major problem was all the road traffic that COMPLETELY IGNORED RED FLASHING DANGER WARNING LIGHTS.
Stopping (as that car did) in the wrong position - isn't a fault of the crossing alarm barrier at all - it is faulty stopping - period.
When the driver of the car should NOT have even been attempting to cross, an already LONG TIME of "flashing red lamps".
We all know - car drivers assume they have "time" to cross, long after the lights start flashing - but in reality - a VERY FAST APPROACHING TRAIN - (one that will be activating them normally) - "arrives" into the crossing within 17 seconds of them activating.
Take the DELAY between the start of the lights flashing - to when the physical barrier also comes down - and you DO NOT HAVE TIME - to cross.
Only a fool breaks the two second rule in following distances (behind other road users - or four seconds in the rain) - and ONLY a fool - goes through ANY red light, steady or flashing - at any time.
Several vehicles there, all went sailing through - BOTH periods of red flashing lights, both BEFORE that train arrived, and after, when it "back-set' and reactivated the sigs.
There was absolutely nothing after that - that would have prevented any other train, thundering across that crossing..
The fact that none did - just meant that all those idiotic car drivers who ran the "flashing lights' - were saved - by having a physical barrier across the road.
NEVER complain about the way crossing alarms / barrier arms activate - without having a damned good knowledge - of how the actual electrical circuit that is "wired" across and along the rails - for 1/4 mile either side of any crossing.
Especially when they activated as normal for the train that slowed and STOPPED (briefly outside - but not quite clear of the alarm circuits).
They reactivated as designed, when something - anything - activated an alarm function - such that the barriers & lights worked to warn road users - of an IMPENDING train .. Note:
IMPENDING also relates to anything that isn't a train - that shorts out one or other of the approach tracks - or the mid section of the crossing itself, hence - sorry - but those sigs were working perfectly.
No malfunction. If the lights are flashing and the sirens sounding the cars should have stopped.
The malfunction was where the crossing lowered the second time and no train approached
Amazing catch!
DP's Railway Videos Thanks mate.
Wow awesome video!
Train might of still been on the treddle and reactivated the crossing
Are these really the old trains from the London Underground?
Maybe he tried to stop but got the brakes on to late but 1. I never thought I would see that 2. Why would the crossing go down if no trains crossed??
hey joe! I am going to build a 0.5 scale AHB, which really got me excited. I want to give it a penguin barrier, but what are the sizes of those things? I need to know the height, widht, and lenght. I look forward to hearing from you!
level crossing spotter The size Varys, idk the size and width to be exact, but what ever you come out with I’m sure will be good enough.
Love the video
Did not one think to use phone to alert signal box?
As soon as the lights stop they turn back on like why is another train coming
That almost happened to my parent's car when we were stopped at a railroad crossing to see Union Pacifc steam locomotive 844 in 2007. Fortunately my dad reversed the car just before it finished lowering on the hood of our minivan.
I have never seen a barrier hit a car like that, I’ve only seen damaged wag wigs or Damaged lights, for example: Haxby Road or Exeter St David’s! I should of put this comment on way before when you uploaded this video! 😱
That was a surprise, for everyone I think.
Please can someone kindly tell me what the stalk is poking out from the bottom of the light board is.
Beau Sexon It’s a camera pointing at the lights so it can be seen working ok by the signallers
Like your vids btw :) what the hell happend to the crossing
Great catch that.
Paul Gilman Thanks, never seen this happen before in person.
How come you posted this in to UK Dash Cams?
People these days I don't know they need to go on a level crossing awareness course
Oh wow!
JT crossing,I feel like the embarrassing thing cause malfunction of the level crossing was 2 times but other one the barrier hits a car!😮
I don’t know why they are such in a hurry to get across and even if the barriers go up it’s not an indication to get going wait for one second after they go up to make sure they will stay up and make sure is clear “Crossings are life savers not time wasters”.
I hope the repair 👩🔧 Bill for the car isn’t too big. If there’s anoher train 🚂 coming it had better hurry up because the video’s about to end
When the crossing goes down in the car it’s at the crossing just freaks out and gets angry so malfunctions
Imagine if it had the gate that had the Thing that blocks u from walking under it
The train didn't stop far enough up the platform
Did you not notice to read the car number plate to report to British Transport Police BTP And car name
Kristijan Nemeth 2ND Channel Nah there’s no point in that, that’s a do gooders game
Snitching aint cool, man!
They wont take action unless a police officer personally witnesses it
GRASS
That was well strange for that to happen and that was realy bad misuse your lucky
Hella Hay. I have never ever seen this happen here!
Jarton 669 Well now you have 😁
Great vid
OH MY FLIPPING GOSH! HAHA
Very bizarre malfunction; this crossing must be cursed at it caused a train to SPAD in 2006
At the very end the 4x4 still jumped the red lights. Obviously lesson not learned.
Oh dear, looks like misuse! Great successive closure, too!
Delta Australia That was a big misuse, didn’t you see how close the last car on the other side was to taking the barrier off?
It's serious, isn't it?
@@JTCrossingsUK does it happen a lot here?
blue car also got misuse at 1:23
Delta Australia What misuse or barriers hitting cars?
OH MY GOD! 😱
I love the uk level crosings reply pls
I should say the level crossing got the vehicles mixed up
Great catch when car hit by barrier this is not good
you can post this on BBC Or other and also news as well if you wish
Hey Network Rail, MCB-OD please
Nathan A RF Would be much safer wouldn’t it.
At the end, the Jeep driver was not happy as he/she speeds away from the crossing.
Not good! Have you let NR know
South Coast Level Crossings Nah I don’t report things, pointless. Depending if It was really bad though.
The signaller would have been made aware of it anyway, since this crossing has CCTV.
Will Scriven Yeah I forgot about that, I don’t think it’s observed very often though.
A perfect misunderstanding?
I've seen that at harlech them it broke the Crossing lol
Did you know that it was going to go off again
Charlie Impey No had no clue
1:24 bruh moment
Birriers Go Up And back Down was agin
1:23 Misuse
Malfunction at the junction
😯😯😯
Bring Back British Rail
This gotta be one of the worst videos of misuse I’ve seen in a while , people don’t know the meaning of flashing red lights in this part of the world 😂🤦♂️
Crikey!
Oh s**t what a thing to happen
Kent Rail Observer Ikr, lucky catch.
You’re so lucky
Lol and I'm first
Haha well shouldn't try and jump em then would love to see them claim for that haha
thomas charles It’s prob been tried, wouldn’t put it past people lol.
Goodness
Brother?
Or Twins
Omg
No sympathy, regardless if it was supposed to come back down or not lights where flashing red, should of stopped, along with all the others that went through, just pure ignorance and impatience
Jesus! Jesus.
Hello mate
Stupid thing to do
