About this crossing

How often it closes

On today’s timetable, Boat House crossing is predicted to be closed for about 2 h 53 min between 06:00 and 22:00, across roughly 87 closures. The longest single predicted closure is 1 minute. 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.

Worst times to cross today

Closures cluster around 10:44–11:44 in the morning and around 13:35–14:35 in the middle of the day. Gaps between closures are longest outside those windows. Other days run a different timetable, so the peaks move.

About this crossing

Boat House is a user-worked with stop lights crossing (UWCMSL) on the MetroCentre–Hexham line (North and East route · ELR NEC2). 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.
