The only automatic half barrier crossing to exist on the East Coast Main Line (ECML), which at the time of filming, still retained Mk1 "Penguin" half barriers which are seen as a rarity. Also at the time of filming, construction was starting on a new flyover which will cause the permanent closure of this level crossing. The construction was expected to take around 10 months to complete.
Thanks For Watching!

You don't get much time for error there! A pleasant countryside setting 😊👍

@UKLevelCrossingsChannel Месяц назад

Yeah not with these automatic crossings you don't. Around 30 seconds from activation to train passing for a lot of these crossings.

Scotland! This is a beautiful crossing, very pretty white picket fencing, lovely country road listen to the birds singing. Fab alarm & barriers. Nice catches ❤😊👍

Your first Scotland video doesn't disappoint! I love the Twin Arm barriers, but it's such a shame that they'll be gone, and leave East Lothian with only 1 crossing. Great videos of this really nice crossing that will soon leave us

@UKLevelCrossingsChannel Месяц назад

Thanks! Well it'll leave St Germains which is also quite a nice crossing.

Thanks. Yeah it was a nice crossing.

I’m coming back to Scotland in June, hopefully to catch this crossing before it closes.🤞

@UKLevelCrossingsChannel Месяц назад

Fingers crossed. By the looks of the construction I filmed at the beginning, the crossings' days are numbered.

From what i heard that this crossing is gonna get taken away but at the same time i did hear someone say they where gonna upgrade it

@UKLevelCrossingsChannel Месяц назад

The videos at the beginning showed the current state of construction on a new bridge. I believe this crossing will be permanently closed and replaced by a bridge in less than a year.

Fantastic Video and Shots! 👍🏻👍🏻 Really like these alarms! Shame this crossing is going soon.

Great video and crossing! Shame the classic signals there are soon to be removed. I have to wonder if any other AHBs once existed on the ECML.

@UKLevelCrossingsChannel Месяц назад

Thank you. There might have been others in addition to this one, but Markle is the only one I know of.

@Newtownabbeyist208 Месяц назад

@@UKLevelCrossingsChannel You’d be correct, the rest are mostly MCB-CCTV between London Kings Cross and Edinburgh Waverley.

@UKLevelCrossingsChannel Месяц назад

@@Newtownabbeyist208 Yeah, it's a mix of MCB, MCB-CCTV, MCB-OD and even a MG.

@c.s-crossings 28 дней назад

@@UKLevelCrossingsChannelThere's a few 'MGs', but I think they're all opened on request. Not a surprise given the speed and frequency of trains though.
