Barrier Fault at Bollo Lane (Richmond Line) Level Crossing, Greater London

[@grlscove8858]

There is also another level crossing down the road and another in action central, Nice video 👍👍

[@SouthEastLevelCrossings]

Thanks! 😎
I know where all those are, and I've filmed at Acton Central. Nothing was scheduled to run over the other Bollo Lane LC at the time unfortunately.

That vegetation-clearing job will be done perfectly, because the fellow with the chain saw has four supervisors. ;-)

Excellent video

[@freebrickproductions]

Great video! Seen similar happen a few times before here in the US.

[@SouthEastLevelCrossings]

Thanks a lot! 👌
This does seem a very strange fault to be honest.

[@LiftEnthusiast2020OFFTOPIC]

Should replace that faulty barrier also what is the background noise

[@SouthEastLevelCrossings]

This barrier fault is certainly very strange. I've not seen it happen before, even at this crossing, although this barrier does lower quickly and hits the floor quite hard. The background noise was some line-side workers clearing vegetation with machinery.

Could not get the other one / my dad said that it is a diesel line?

[@SouthEastLevelCrossings]

I have seen that level crossing lower twice, although it was in July 2018 and I only filmed the closure sequence, and two closures came around 15 minutes apart, mostly down to luck. It is only used by a few freight trains a day, and I missed one by about half an hour when I got here, with the next one not for a few hours.

That was the same day I went up there / just before you

[@SouthEastLevelCrossings]

Cool.
