About this crossing

The crossing is on Fine Lane in Fradley, Staffordshire.

Fine Lane is a manual gate crossing (MGH) on the Down–Up line (East Midlands route · ELR BJW3). 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.
