The crossing is on the very tight curve just before the Newmarket line joins the main line from Cambridge to Ely, so this train from Ipswich is moving very slowly. Stadler bi-modal trains like this use diesel power on many lines in East Anglia (like this one), but can raise a pantograph on the main lines which are electrified.
