On today’s timetable, West Bank Hall crossing is predicted to be closed for about 49 min between 06:00 and 22:00, across roughly 18 closures. The longest single predicted closure is 4 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: 1.5 min (00:29–00:31, 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.
Closures cluster around 06:00–07:00 in the morning and around 14:07–15:07 in the afternoon. Gaps between closures are longest outside those windows. Other days run a different timetable, so the peaks move.
West Bank Hall is a automatic half-barrier crossing (AHB) on the Hensall Jn–Drax PS line (North and East route · ELR DRA1). 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.
