About this crossing

How often it closes

On today’s timetable, Lime Kiln crossing is predicted to be closed for about 0 min between 06:00 and 22:00, across roughly 0 closures. The longest single predicted closure is 0 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.

Longest closure so far today: 3.2 min (00:35–00:38, 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

No pronounced peak — closures are spread through the day.

About this crossing

Lime Kiln is a cctv-monitored manual barrier crossing (CCTV) on the Ebbw Vale Parkway–Up line (Wales route · ELR WVL). A signaller monitors the crossing, confirms it is clear, and lowers the barriers 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.
