There is no such thing as an automatic full barrier crossing in the UK. Full barrier crossings are manually controlled by a signaller/crossing keeper, either from an adjacent box or remotely with CCTV.
These types of train crossing are called Automatic half barrier. There are other types of crossings in th UK which are called Automatic full barrier. Some crossings are manually closed by the signal man which are vary rare now adays even the old wooden gate crossings.
"Automatic full barrier?" 😂 Crossings with full barriers work the same way as the traditional gated crossings which were closed by hand, except there's remotely operated barriers instead of gates!
The USA needs something like this heck the whole country has very little public transportation where I live at the nearest Amtrak station is 90 minutes away from my house that is by car because the government would rather spend money on stupid common core and standerised test rather than public transportation
ectopudding Yes, a lot of rural crossings are half barriers and trains around them areas are fast so if a driver is stuck on the crossing, it gives them a chance to escape the train
Signal speeds up if 1 train has passed and another is due thats y u get 2 different tones

USA. Was visiting a friend in the UK~
Squeaky Barriers when the barriers coming down.
Warning do not stay on the rail because if the red lights are showing then you have been ran over
The English crossings are very similar to the ones we have in Northern Ireland except for the electric wires overhead.
Nice Video! It's would be cool if the United States adopted the the bottom yellow light and the top red light setup.
What the bloody hell was up @ 1:22?
2:32 Don't even think about it look at the sign to your right 0-0
Great!
Listen to our EUROPEAN BURGULAR ALARM!!!
It seems like the signals and barricades activate unnecessarily early. No wonder UK drivers get so impatient,
A fault you can't take chances on. Phone the Signaller!
You clearly have no idea how level crossings work, the ones that are closed early have a specific reason for being that way.
The barrier sounds like a cow!

should be double barriers on either side.
Richard Pearson Yes, But Some Crossings Are Half - Barriered And Are Named An AHB
There aren't any full barriers in case a car gets trapped on the crossing plus it is not locally monitored.

He is saying clearly Works.
Metoo I agree.
Yep
Bloody Hell.! The Great Eastern Main Line. No problem if people treat the railway with due respect.
clearly works
May I? (Yay for Google Translate!) It's Russian; he said [that it] "clearly works".
Sorry, I speak English. Dunno what made you think I speak Russian. :P
I told, your railway crossing very well works. In Russia all on another
