Glenhuntly level crossing near Melbourne had tram tracks crossing a railway at 90 degrees with OHL voltage changeover from 1500V DC trains to 600V DC tram. It is being eliminated by putting the railway line underground. The crossing is so bad that the trams are speed restricted to 10km/hour and trains at 20km/hr! Video of the last night of operation on the 5th May 2023.
