Trainman-operated barrier level crossing on the Wales route (ELR DJP).
| No trains in the next 30 minutes. |
On today’s timetable, Barmouth South crossing is predicted to be closed for about 39 min between 06:00 and 22:00, across roughly 15 closures. The longest single predicted closure is 2 minutes. Freight paths scheduled “as required” — most don’t run on any given day — aren’t counted here; when one does run, the live timeline above shows it.
Closures cluster around 06:51–07:51 in the morning and around 17:59–18:59 in the evening. Gaps between closures are longest outside those windows. Other days run a different timetable, so the peaks move.
Barmouth South is a trainman-operated barrier crossing (TMOB) on the Machynlleth–Porthmadog line (Wales route · ELR DJP). Forecasts here combine the working timetable with live train-movement data (and live signalling where the crossing has it), so they reflect actual running including delays and freight — though they can still be wrong when the network is disrupted.
We score this page against what actually happened on the railway — over the last 7 days that covered 65 trains through this crossing.
86.2% of observed passes were being warned about on this page when they passed, and 98.7% of the warnings we could verify came true.
Typical timing error was ±985s (9 in 10 within 1195s). This scores when trains pass — barrier movements aren't in the public feeds we can score against.
