Automatic half-barrier level crossing on the North and East route (ELR MAC3).
| No trains in the next 30 minutes. |
On today’s timetable, Rushey Sidings crossing is predicted to be closed for about 1 h 31 min between 06:00 and 22:00, across roughly 36 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.
Closures cluster around 06:02–07:02 in the morning and around 15:15–16:15 in the afternoon. Gaps between closures are longest outside those windows. Other days run a different timetable, so the peaks move.
Rushey Sidings is a automatic half-barrier crossing (AHB-X) on the Retford Down Sidings–Worksop line (North and East route · ELR MAC3). 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.
