About this crossing

How often it closes

On today’s timetable, Hansons crossing is predicted to be closed for about 1 h 18 min between 06:00 and 22:00, across roughly 49 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.

Longest closure so far today: 0.6 min (00:27–00:27, 1 train), timed from trains actually seen on the signalling wire — the window edges use the same per-type margins as the forecast, since barrier positions aren't in any feed we can read.

Worst times to cross today

Closures cluster around 09:29–10:29 in the morning and around 17:44–18:44 in the evening. Gaps between closures are longest outside those windows. Other days run a different timetable, so the peaks move.

About this crossing

Hansons is a user-worked with stop lights crossing (UWCMSL) on the Lincoln–Worksop line (East Midlands route · ELR SPD3). 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.

How accurate is this forecast?

We score this page against what actually happened on the railway — over the last 7 days that covered 236 trains through this crossing.

99.6% of observed passes were being warned about on this page when they passed, and 98.5% of the warnings we could verify came true.

Typical timing error was ±51s (9 in 10 within 202s). This scores when trains pass — barrier movements aren't in the public feeds we can score against.
