About this crossing

How often it closes

On today’s timetable, Hightown Farm crossing is predicted to be closed for about 1 h 18 min between 06:00 and 22:00, across roughly 55 closures. The longest single predicted closure is 2 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.

Worst times to cross today

Closures cluster around 08:12–09:12 in the morning and around 18:27–19:27 in the evening. Gaps between closures are longest outside those windows. Other days run a different timetable, so the peaks move.

About this crossing

Hightown Farm is a user-worked with stop lights crossing (UWCMSL) on the Hexham–Carlisle line (North and East route · ELR NEC2). 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.
