The level crossing, across this very minor road, is required for vehicles to be transferred between the loco shed and the rest of the railway. This probably doesn't happen very often, but when it does, the two white gates are swung out across the road, to warn road traffic to stop. Behind the gate on the left, is Spring Village Railway Station, which currently is the main station on the railway, and where passenger trains commence. Behind the gate on the right, is a further gate across the track, which can be seen here:- Image Image
