Located near Roydon station and Roydon level crossing, on the West Anglia Main Line. The crossing is situated between fields and is accessed by public footpaths. There are fake train horns installed which sound when trains approach, with trains also sounding horns on approach to this crossing.
Thanks For Watching!
Wow those horns sound strange and are funny as to listen to 😂. Makes the fake train horn unit sound nice tbh. Awesome vid! 😁
stadler go HRRRRRRR haha

South East Level Crossings & Trains Channel Yeah, hearing them up close makes them really loud. You certainly wouldn’t miss these trains approaching any crossing lol. Thanks 😁
@@UKLevelCrossingsChannel I can't stand them! I could just about see it gave you a bit of a jump when the second train sounded the horn that third time 😉. Yeah, when I went to Melton Station that time, the train blasted the horn and it was like having a rock thrown at my chest 🥴😂
@@SouthEastLevelCrossings Woodbridge is better
That 2nd train sounded it's horn 3 times and the sound makes me want to cry 😂 Great video
Thanks 😁 Yeah the horns do sound quite unusual, and loud!
@@UKLevelCrossingsChannel yayy 2 weeks later
Great video, looks like a peaceful location here 👍
Thanks 😊 It is in the middle of nowhere. Had to walk around one mile to get to it.
Awesome video mate nice weather isn't it
Thank you 😊 It had actually been raining hard a few days before so the grass was very wet, but at least it wasn't raining.
@@UKLevelCrossingsChannel yeah I know rain a few days
Nice video!
Thank you 😁

Is this where too got chased by cows? 😂, great video and them train horns are so funny 😂
Thanks mate 😁 Yeah it was, they wandered over after I filmed the last train in this video when I went the other side 😂
@@UKLevelCrossingsChannel 😂😂😂, ohh dear, already there was no Bulls in there haha
Interesting that the crossing has a fake horn system (which I can’t see the point in when trains are required to sound their horn)
I came across a crossing yesterday that appeared to have a fake horn system, and for whatever reason, there was a sign at the crossing saying that ALL users of the crossing (including pedestrians) must phone before crossing (it’s a user worked crossing with vehicle gates, as well as pedestrian gates)
Trains still sounded their horns on approach to that crossing
The Covtech designed fake horns are just a cheap solution to reduce the risk at some foot crossings and add a bit of an extra warning. That's interesting that all users must phone the signaller. It must be quite a less used crossing if that's the case.
@@UKLevelCrossingsChannel the crossing goes to a couple of houses, and there is apparently also a public footpath that goes over that crossing (but based on where it appears to go, I’m guessing most people use the road to bypass that crossing)
I can’t decide if I want to try filming at that crossing
I believe these are the 745s with no first class and go to Stansted.
The 745s are ridiculously long, even without first class.
Yeah, these are the 12-car 745s. One of my favourite trains, especially when they’re travelling at speed.
@@UKLevelCrossingsChannel However, they’re so ridiculously long.
@@DaveDVideoMaker nothing wrong with that? it fits at platform’s? so what’s the problem?
@@poshlad6275 They’re ridiculously long and that’s an end of it.
