Hensall Level Crossing

Tuesday July 24 2018 at 12.40. 66116, which we haven’t seen before, taking more wood pellets to Drax. This is half a mile west of Heck Lane LC. Drax was built by coal mines so there wouldn’t be transportation costs. Now that they've decided that burning free coal causes too much pollution, Drax is in totally the wrong place. This crossing had wheel driven boom gates (see Urlay Nook LC or Cutsyke LC) until 2014. In 1949 a lorry and a freight engine collided here after a mistake by the crossing keeper or signaller. One person a day uses this station with its 3 trains a day. 850 people live here though and there is a post office in the village. Knottingley station, just 6 miles along the line, has a half hourly service to Leeds. Unlike at Snaith and Rawcliffe Stations the line here has to be open and pays for itself because of the freight traffic. Running a few extra passenger trains as far as here to try to build more usage would therefore cost very little. 85 seconds of the wait here was cut due to a battery change.
