What the maximum time that crossing barriers should be down for trains on a CCTV Crossing?
A workmate was waiting at Armthorpe CCTV crossing on East Coast mainline in excess of 17 minutes for trains to pass.
Who can beat that then?
Also who in law has right of way at road crossings?
As in example a railway swing bridge over a river has to give way to the river as the river was there before the railway and the same on the canal system.
So since the road, trackway or fooypath was established before the railway come along years later, was an Act of Parliament passe giving the railway right of way over road?
Someone out there will know the answers, so thanks in advance.
