The level crossing at Umbra is where the Coleraine – Downhill – Limavady road crosses the Belfast – Londonderry railway. The train is the 14.40 Londonderry – Belfast Central. At the time the crossing was an open one controlled by flashing lights. It has now reverted to automatic barriers. The rear car is no 89 – the first of the fleet of 80-class railcars to be delivered.
