What a cool 'Passage à Niveau'! The traffic light integration reminds me a lot of West Worthing and Lymington Level Crossings, and I like how this one's all set-up. Fabulous video! 👍👍
Great vid, very interesting crossing. First time I've seen the 'stop' pedestrian lights used in conjunction with the road lights. Also, that right-side barrier on your side was so flexible it almost hit the ground 😂
Normalement, pour un SAL 4 sur une ligne parcouru à moin de 140 km/h le délai d'annonce est de 35 s. Mais là pour des raisons de coordination avec les feux de circulation le délai à été majoré. De plus depuis le début de la vidéo la lempe du téléphone d'urgence est allumé, ce qui prouve que l'annonce à déjà été déclenché avant même le fonctionnement du PN.
Normally French crossings have automatic half-barriers but all the full-barrier ones do this. My best guess is that the exit barriers have been retrofitted rather than fully integrated (like AOCL+B types in the UK), which makes sense because (unlike in the UK) the full-barrier crossings work in exactly the same way as the half-barrier ones.
One week later... That's the level crossings that I know (even if I don't live in Lorient, I'm french), and not all level crossings are that wide right here. This train is one of our regional trains (maybe it's going to Brest or Quimper), and they're called "Z21500" (Z for electric train). Honestly, I hate these bells so much, I much prefer the yodalarms/e2s alarms in the UK.
The way French crossings work is quite different to the ones in the UK, particularly with the 4 barrier setups, as the bells on all the ones I’ve seen with 4 barriers stop as the first two barriers are down. Not really sure why though, it could be because this one may have had two barriers before and the two extra ones were added later, but I’m not sure. I know there’s another 4 barrier setup not too far from here that used to only have 2 barriers but then 2 extra ones got fitted later on.

Ce passage à niveau est un monstre !
C'est une sonnerie retenti comme le réveil du matin mdr 😂 😂 😂 passage à niveau 😍
Grave
Butiful crossing this is I love the cute bell it has 🎉
the bell is the same that argentina pedestrian crossings. Nice video 👍
Does anyone know why the bell stoped when the first barrier came down? Little confusing.

Wow Will I like your commitment!
If only the French level crossings were all like this one.
Great video!
That barrier coming down at 0:58 looks to be in a bit of a state!
Ça réagit comme dans les Barrières A Parking ou Ceux des Péages Routiers Mdr
Great video and crossing! Is that a cantilever signal on the far side?
Thanks! 😁👍
Yes, there’s cantilever signals on both sides of this crossing.
You should film level crossings on the London to Weymouth line
I guess people have to t-pose when there is a train coming, lol!
Lol 😂
Awesome, thumbs up and subscribed
Trop bien le train il passe un passage à niveau
Excellent video
Thanks! 😁👍
Ok why did the bell stopped before the other barrier was going down

Damn. This is bigger than UKs
It’s quite a wide crossing indeed!
Nice! You on holiday atm?
Thanks! 👍👍
Yes I am. 😁
Jesus Christ mate, that barrier drops a bit fast doesn’t it?
Yeah, a bit lol.
