    Awesome video! I would not have expected a class 43 down that way, especially in old First Great Western livery too! I do prefer this livery to the current GWR livery I must admit. I just love that alarm! Undoubtably my favourite UK Level Crossing is this one! It's one of my targets this year to visit it again after I last visited here in 2012!

      Thank you! 😎 Haha I know you love it when I upload this crossing. I've got another 12 closures to upload still! 43s terminate here from Paddington and some use Goodrington Sidings as a rest (waiting) point before heading back. That's how Sands Road crossing is used by both mainline and the Dartmouth Steam Railway. I probably wont be returning here for a little while considering I've still got tons of footage from each crossing to still upload 😁

      Paignton is a lovely town in a really nice part of the UK. Worth a visit 👍

    The locos for the NSW TrainLink XPT are actually based on the Class 43 locos!

    Great video as usual! Sad that the HSTs are due to be replaced soon (end of this year I think) - majestic beasts - and also for the Pacers, as I’m yet to go on one and it’s quite likely that I won’t before they too are retired.

      Thank you 😎 I never knew the HSTs were going. That's a shame however at least I filmed a few nice shots of them arrive and depart Paignton. As for the Pacers, they're really getting on for their age.

    And plus, this is actually Paignton North level crossing; Paignton South level crossing is for the Dartmouth Steam Railway.

      @UKLevelCrossingsChannel  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yeah it is, I've included its official name in the description. I tend to call this just 'Paignton' as it is the main crossing in the town and its right beside the main station

    Good to see that pedestrians waited for the second train or used the footbridge and didn't attempt to sneak across.

    • @UKLevelCrossingsChannel
      @UKLevelCrossingsChannel  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yeah, it's quite rare for something like that to happen. Quite a few people however ignored red lights when the barriers were lowering. A couple almost got trapped.

      @@UKLevelCrossingsChannel Like a yellow traffic signal, the lights tell most people to hurry up and cross before the barriers come down.

      Thanks. I don't know what will happen to them. They won't be coming down to the south-east for sure as everything's electric 😎
