Rare Barriers at Clay Mills Level Crossing, Staffordshire

Date filmed: Friday the 1st of August 2025 Videos filmed between 15:15 and 16:07 Route: Birmingham to Derby Line (Cross Country Route) Between Burton-upon-Trent (BUT) and Willington (WIL) Stations Crossing type: Manually Controlled Barrier crossing with CCTV (MCB-CCTV) Filming location: Meadow Lane, Burton-upon-Trent (DE13 0DA) A level crossing on the Cross Country Route, controlled from Derby and monitored via CCTV, located near a Victorian pumping station at the edge of Burton-Upon-Trent, Staffordshire. Remarkably, it is one of only ten (eight at the time this video goes live) level crossings anywhere in the UK to still retain its 'British Rail Western Region' barriers from either the 1960s or 1970s, although the ones here are slowing and seem to be in a tired state. This level crossing also has very loud alarms, rather unusually both are located on the off-sides, and the one on the Birmingham-Bound side has had its sounding tip replaced as of earlier this year. Gone is that genuinely horrible screeching flat-tone high-pitched alarm.
