Thanks so much for making this video. 60 years have passed since I last travelled on a tram on this line and I could remember and maybe half-remember parts of the trip. It was interesting to pass an old double decker tram. I certainly recall how rickety they were. I surprised myself at how much I enjoyed your video. Thanks again.
I did a tour of the entire Underground in 1966! Lucky enough to go to Ongar and back. A beautiful leafy journey. Never forgotten. I remember crossing the little bridge at Epping Station, still unchanged.
Anyone wondering, its for the (partially) blind. slow tick is red, fast tick is green, alternating slow/fast is light about to change to red, you should not start crossing
I think that they when they first started installing these alarms, they had two messages (like this crossing). As well as "More than one train may be approaching", on a double stay, it also said "Do not cross, another train coming". I think that they may have removed the "More than one train may be approaching" and have kept the double stay message. There should video about it here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ppXlm9y2FF0.html. Milton Fen doesn't have the "Warning, more than one train may be approaching".
Before the foot crossing was closed I used to visit that location often until I visited for the last time at the beginning of 2014. I've never been there since.
I know! I think Network Rail are planning to upgrade this crossing, as they have done with a few crossings on the West Anglia Main Line already. Hinxton (which is very close and also had halogens) has been upgraded.
