43176 Steventon Stocks Lane 10 March 2015

Frustration at Stocks Lane level crossing, Steventon, on 10 March 2015. Villagers are used to lengthy delays at this crossing, and on this occasion the barriers were down for some considerable time, while trains were halted at nearby Causeway level crossing, and proceeded eastwards at reduced speed. The second of three affected trains, the 1L58 12:20 Cheltenham to Paddington First Great Western service passes slowly over the crossing led by 43176.
