You could be forgiven for thinking that bringing out the bunting at this level crossing is a celebration of the line's recent resumation of activity.

However, this is actually how this level crossing works at present, with two railway engineers dropping stop signs on the road and then holding two strings of bunting across the road to prevent cars from crossing as the train traverses the road!

The lights don't currently work and there's been some recent local worries about such a busy road not having gates.
