Cooksbridge - level crossing
Image: © Colin Vosper Taken: 28 Jan 2010
The photograph was taken in the gloom of the early morning in January whilst heading north through Cooksbridge and a train has to cross A275 road at the level crossing. It did not fully cross the road, as the train was too long to complete the crossing so that this last carriage was left on the crossing whilst the remaining part of the train was safely stopped alongside the station platform. This must have been a frustrating wait for the motorists heading to work, especially as on this occasion they had to wait for another through train to pass before the crossing barriers could be safely opened.
