Preston Docks Level Crossings and Swing Bridge, Preston Docks, Lancashire on the Ribble Steam Railway.
Location: Navigation Way, Preston
Date Filmed: 29-10-2016

Trains:
BR Class 14 D9539/1965 + Hawthorn Leslie 3931/1938 ‘Linda’ (Ribble Steam Railway)
A video of the two level crossings at Preston docks, found on the Ribble Steam Railway. One of these level crossings runs along the road, over the Preston docks swing bridge. The swing bridge occasionally opens for vessels coming in and out of the marina. There's a pedestrian level crossing beside the swing bridge, allowing pedestrians to cross the line. All the equipment seems rather old. It is very interesting to look at and quite awesome seeing a steam train travelling over the bridge. Something very unique and rare in the UK.
Thanks For Watching!

Yes! I was hoping these would be filmed at some point. You should have gone down the road to the AOCL too!

I was guessing you wanted these recorded. I was short for time unfortunately so I didn't manage to visit the AOCL. I do have a shot from my car of the crossing at Strand Road.

As someone who sees this line quite alot I believe it could be at the end of its time as it’s barely used anymore, when passenger trains come though it’s the most it’s ever used, other than that there is the odd freight train now and again

@UKLevelCrossingsChannel 3 жыл бұрын

Well I know it's used by the Ribble Steam Railway, but they don't run trains very frequently

UK Level Crossings Channel also I don’t know if you knew this but if you go down the line towards the station there is an open level crossing (to the right of where the video was recorded)

Yeah, I know about that one, Lockside Road I believe it's called. Unfortunately, I didn't film it when I filmed the crossing on the swing bridge.

Why do the gate lights flash so much?

@UKLevelCrossingsChannel 7 жыл бұрын

It was the camera. It doesn't like small LED module lights too much. Although they're flashing on the video, they aren't actually flashing in real life.

No alarms a road crossing?

@UKLevelCrossingsChannel 4 жыл бұрын

There are alarms where there's a pedestrian pathway over the railway, shown in the video with the pedestrian lights. The swing bridge has alarms but they're only used when the swing bridge is operating. At this large crossing, the pathways are seperate from the road.
