On today’s timetable, Caldicot crossing is predicted to be closed for about 4 h 44 min between 06:00 and 22:00, across roughly 65 closures. The longest single predicted closure is 7 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 08:20–09:20 in the morning and around 15:20–16:20 in the afternoon. Gaps between closures are longest outside those windows. Other days run a different timetable, so the peaks move.
Caldicot is a cctv-monitored manual barrier crossing (CCTV) on the Lydney–Severn Tunnel Junction line (Wales route · ELR SWM2). A signaller monitors the crossing, confirms it is clear, and lowers the barriers 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.
We score this page against what actually happened on the railway — over the last 7 days that covered 159 trains through this crossing.
100.0% of observed passes were being warned about on this page when they passed, and 90.2% of the warnings we could verify came true.
Typical timing error was ±52s (9 in 10 within 133s). This scores when trains pass — barrier movements aren't in the public feeds we can score against.
