Manually-controlled barrier level crossing on the Western route (ELR AMB).
| No trains in the next 30 minutes. |
On today’s timetable, St. Andrew's Jn crossing is predicted to be closed for about 3 h between 06:00 and 22:00, across roughly 40 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 06:15–07:15 in the morning and around 19:45–20:45 in the evening. Gaps between closures are longest outside those windows. Other days run a different timetable, so the peaks move.
St. Andrew's Jn is a manually-controlled barrier crossing (MCB/MB) on the Severn Beach–Avonmouth line (Western route · ELR AMB). 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.
We score this page against what actually happened on the railway — over the last 7 days that covered 350 trains through this crossing.
87.1% of observed passes were being warned about on this page when they passed, and 95.7% of the warnings we could verify came true.
Typical timing error was ±33s (9 in 10 within 588s). This scores when trains pass — barrier movements aren't in the public feeds we can score against.
