A single video of a Cross Country voyager speeding past this level crossing beside Bramley Station on the Reading to Basingstoke Line. It was dark at the time, though the crossing is actually pretty well-floodlit. It's a fairly basic crossing overall, but it does have two slightly older 'YA30' alarms which have been around here since well before this kind of identical-sounding alarm started becoming not so uncommon and appearing at numerous different locations. The level crossing is operated from Basingstoke, and there's even signs provided by Great Western Railway advising people to contact them rather than any station staff should they wish to comment on barrier operation.
