On today’s timetable, Switches Farm crossing is predicted to be closed for about 51 min between 06:00 and 22:00, across roughly 31 closures. The longest single predicted closure is 1 minute. 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 09:42–10:42 in the morning and around 15:10–16:10 in the afternoon. Gaps between closures are longest outside those windows. Other days run a different timetable, so the peaks move.
Switches Farm is a user-worked with stop lights crossing (UWCMSL) on the Skipton–Carnforth Steamtown line (North West route · ELR SKW1). 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.
