About this crossing

How often it closes

On today’s timetable, Hospital Mill crossing is predicted to be closed for about 2 h 4 min between 06:00 and 22:00, across roughly 65 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.

Worst times to cross today

Closures cluster around 09:14–10:14 in the morning and around 19:07–20:07 in the evening. Gaps between closures are longest outside those windows. Other days run a different timetable, so the peaks move.

About this crossing

Hospital Mill is a user-worked with stop lights crossing (UWCMSL) on the Glenrothes with Thornton–Leuchars line (Scotland route · ELR ECN2). 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 475 trains through this crossing.

100.0% of observed passes were being warned about on this page when they passed, and 99.8% of the warnings we could verify came true.

Typical timing error was ±117s (9 in 10 within 173s). This scores when trains pass — barrier movements aren't in the public feeds we can score against.
