Westbrecks crossing

13 Oct 2023 2 2 184
Sign overload at the approach to Westbrecks crossing on the railway serving Cottam power station. That's a lot for drivers to absorb whilst avoiding other traffic and road junctions. I am sure they are all deemed necessary but I doubt that the average motorist will register everything. The gated crossing sign is incorrect as there are no gates or barriers on this level crossing.

Dongchang crossing

The level crossing at Dongchang on the Chengzihe section of the Jixi Coal Railway afforded the opportunity to get above the action by climbing the ice-packed stairs of the adjacent apartment block. SY 1544 hurries across with a rake of empty spoil tippers and heads for Beichang washery for another load.

Norbury Crossing

26 Mar 2015 1 451
Held up by the crossing on my way home this afternoon, I decided it was time for a view of the crossing cabin as the train passed. The 150 unit seen here is heading for Buxton. The crossing is expected to remain with hand operated gates until at least 2025.

UPM Shotton

Boiler house at the UPM paper mill, Shotton, Deeside which produces about 22% of the UK newsprint requirement. The boilers are partly fuelled with the ink that has been reclaimed from recycled paper that is being put into the production of newsprint. There is currently little/no rail traffic to/from the site.

Another Fuxin crossing

15 Jun 2011 2 272
The many level crossings at Fuxin cause significant traffic holdups when rail traffic is high. SY 1319 shunts across with coal tippers whilst the locals patiently wait.

Yet another Fuxin crossing

08 Apr 2011 255
The Fuxin mining railway has several crossings in the town where the locals pay little attention as the SY class locomotives go about their daily work.

Norbury Hollow Crossing

05 Nov 2010 1 2 463
Situated on a 'rat run' to the A6 the level crossing at Norbury Hollow has little room for vehicles to pass on either side of the almost right angle turns as you drive on and off. This is the former LNWR line from Stockport to Buxton between Hazel Grove and Middlewood. The present crossing cabin replaced a small single storey house a few years ago. The view at the start of the twentieth century .

Waiting for the off!

23 Mar 2010 259
The waiting traffic at this level crossing in Fuxin occupies the whole width of the roadway. Of course a similar situation is to be found on the other side of the tracks and things will become interesting once the barriers are slid aside. :-D

Jitong crossing

Typical wayside crossing on the Jitong Railway. This example is just east of Lindong and seen with typical traffic for the district.
