"Beware of trains"

Hahaha no really xD

[spentacle]

@CPnieuws What's funny. You try being in charge of a train full of kids and some twat drives across the line right in front of you. Very thoughtless comment. How did 4 of you give this a thumbs up?

[CPnieuws]

@spentacle Actually, now I'm looking back at the comment, I don't think it's funny. But really, I don't think anyone likes your comment either.

[jeroldcrawford]

Wigwag means alternating flashers. While wigwag has a special meaning to us here us the USA as the old swinging type of signal, this is technically a wigwag signal as are the alternating flashing lights in the USA

[masterofdisaster246]

does someone have to deactivate and activate the crossing or is it automatic when a train comes cause theres a guy at the end

[Crossingman18]

ACK! Its a YODALARM! A popular British Electronic bell!

[boomersooner202]

my shool fire alarm is a bell

[hstclass43]

At my school we have electronic sirens as fire alarms and old fire alarms al bells to tell us when to change class

[hstclass43]

that siren thingy looks like the fire alarms at school

[phorneker]

Why is the head end of the train painted for Canadian Pacific Railway?

[cindy1000000]

This wig-wag signal looks so cool.

[camtorchwood]

o my god this brought back some memory of when i was in north cornwall there used to be a minature railway that was a masive hit with the tourists but the guy who run it closed it down he was elderly and gave up the place when he retired

[jssuiter]

Tut tut! There must be a full 27.5 seconds from when the sirens and lights show until when the train hits the level crossing.

[Sscls]

This is miniature. The train is slow, you can see it good, and here are only people so no accidents could happen except the train would hit someone but that is 1) not a big deal it wouln't hurt that much and 2) strange you would walk on the tracks. you can only get on the tracks on the level crossing and the track is fully fenced.

[jssuiter]

Hehehehe, was only applying industry rules to this as a joke.....

[tomnelson510]

Don't try humour around this sort of thing, far too many people just don't get it! I did though!

[jssuiter]

Ah thank you for pointing a crutial issue out to me, I shall refrain from personal enjoyment in the future.

Yours,

An enlightenned JSS

[Sscls]

where are the wig wags?

[shadowthewedgehog]

that is a bit cheesy, i mite go 1 day though

[buggiecar]

Nifty!

[traffilite]

actually, in the UK these are reffered to in the Traffic Signals industry as wig-wag signal heads.

[sophieoftipton]

Reaally?

[Pugragger]

@traffilite yes the flash pattern in the electronics industry is called "wig-wag" so there. lol

[sophieoftipton]

wig-wags are a crossing in the USA that swing

when trains are coming.This is no wig-wag.

[traffilite]

yes, most areas where public (visitors) inercept the train has them

[jimbus3000]

Nice!

[deafmonk19]

should have this for kings island train ride

[traffilite]

its english, its actually brookside minature railway near stockport, manchester.

[jimbus3000]

Am I right in thinking this is in a garden centre?

[ArticElephant]

Yes, it's in a garden centre.

The railway has been there for years.

[Welwyn22]

This is pretty cool. Is this an English place or Canadian? Because it has a Canadian train but a British style level crossing. I've been to a few parks with miniature railways (Bressingham, Pettits, Village Experience) and none of them have a level crossing like this! But I must admit that the Village Experience (Now shut down) did have a traditional wooden level crossing near the station.

Pretty cool though.
