Level Crossing - Unusual Crossings

Unusual Crossings

Bishton level crossing in Wales is unusual in that it is partly replaced by an underpass for low clearance cars, leaving the level crossing for high clearance trucks. There are many similar crossings on the line between London Liverpool Street and King's Lynn (built by the Great Eastern Railway Company), including at Ely and Great Chesterford, and also near Cambridge Science Park on the former line to St Ives. The level crossing at Manningtree station in Essex also features this set-up.
