On today’s timetable, Burneside Higher crossing is predicted to be closed for about 2 h 23 min between 06:00 and 22:00, across roughly 32 closures. The longest single predicted closure is 3 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 10:59–11:59 in the morning and around 13:12–14:12 in the middle of the day. Gaps between closures are longest outside those windows. Other days run a different timetable, so the peaks move.
The crossing is on Hollins Lane in Burneside, Cumbria.
Burneside Higher is a manual gate crossing (MGH) on the Oxenholme Lake District–Windermere line (North West route · ELR OXW). A signaller or crossing keeper closes the gates across the road ahead of each train. 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.
