Brookland is a automatic open level crossing crossing (AOCL) on the Ashford International–Rye line (Kent route · ELR APL). The approaching train itself triggers the closure at a fixed point on its approach. 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.
