While checking out a route to get my traction engine home, I discovered I would be crossing the ECML at Grove Road level crossing just south of Retford station. I didn't notice a sign telling drivers of long, high or slow vehicles to contact Network Rail, but I am concerned that the barriers may come down while part of my road train (Engine + drawbar trailer + LW landrover on A-bar + caravan) is still on the crossing. I am sure that whatever delay is programmed into the exit barrier would not allow for 80ft of road train travelling at 4mph!
So, is the adjacent signalbox still manned, whereby I could ask the signalman directly if I have time to cross?
Or, is there a telephone number I'd have to ring to ascertain the same information?
