Welcome to the Only Level Crossing with Sliding Gates!
These were installed here in 2015, replacing the old wooden gates before then.
It often gets very windy in this area so the old wooden gates were hard to operate in strong winds so it was upgraded in 2015 to these sliding gates to ensure the person in the signal box can operate the gates better even in windy conditions. Barriers were not installed here because they wouldn’t be able to lower/raise in strong winds.
This is the only Level Crossing in this Country to have these sliding gates.
Some Misuse can be seen in mainly the last lowering (5) Do not run across the crossing whilst the gates are closing. (Don’t copy what they do, as seen in mainly Lowering 5)
Please enjoy the videos of this sliding gated crossing!
Thanks for Watching!
