On today’s timetable, Park South crossing is predicted to be closed for about 1 h 46 min between 06:00 and 22:00, across roughly 23 closures. The longest single predicted closure is 6 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.
Closures cluster around 06:00–07:00 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.
Park South is a manually-controlled barrier crossing (MCB/MB) on the Barrow-in-Furness–Millom line (North West route · ELR CBC1). 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.
