Dymchurch Level Crossing (St Mary's Road Crossing)

Romney, Hythe & Dymchurch Railway diesel loco No.12 "J.B. Snell" in black and yellow heads toward St Mary's Bay before Romney, Hythe & Dymchurch Railway steam loco No.7 "Typhoon" in Malachite green heads into Dymchurch station and onto Hythe. After, Romney, Hythe & Dymchurch steam loco No.8 "Hurricane" in Caledonian blue heads into Dymchurch station also. This is one of the oldest ABCLs on this narrow gauge line and seems to be, well not in a bad working order, but not in a good working order. The triggers for the crossing when the two trains passed in the first shot were activated just shy of each other as to not keep the barriers lowered. As the crossing raises the first time, the white light on the back of one of the wig wags in the mid left of the screen can be seen switching off and on again. That's not a fault, just bad timing really. I've always wondered what would happen if the triggers were activated just like that, but I've only thought of the national railway, not a narrow gauge line. The lights are all still from the 1970s when the crossing was an AOCL. Barriers were added after the deaths of two drivers in the noughties, and so was the extended white light on the back of one of the wig wags. What wasn't added in the noughties but back in the 70s was a flashing red light pointing toward the Dymchurch Recreation Ground, which can just be seen in the second shot. The road markings are almost correct although the paint covering the old ones may have worn away so both versions are visible. There was a baby seagull crying out for food on one of the rooftops nearby, with it's mum fighting off jackdaws. Bloody jackdaws.
