About this crossing

How often it closes

On today’s timetable, Kildonan crossing is predicted to be closed for about 17 min between 06:00 and 22:00, across roughly 8 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 09:01–10:01 in the morning and around 13:07–14:07 in the middle of the day. Gaps between closures are longest outside those windows. Other days run a different timetable, so the peaks move.

About this crossing

The crossing is near Kidonan Lodge, Highland, next to Kildonan station.

Kildonan is a automatic barrier locally monitored crossing (ABCL) on the Tain–Wick line (Scotland route · ELR WCK). The approaching train itself triggers the closure at a fixed point on its approach. 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.
