A level crossing at the side of the River Stort just outside of Harlow on the Essex / Hertfordshire border. The bridge over this river on one side of the crossing has a cobbled road surface, and each of the four wigwags and some of their lights here appear to be fitted at wonky and interesting angles, making for eye-catching angles and layouts. One of the alarms has a cool-sounding, slightly-wobbly, low-pitched tone, and the two barriers on that side of the crossing are both back-to-front due to the restrictive space posed by the very nicely preserved former signal box on that side. The line here is bendy with a slightly lower line speed, and is still very busy after the Hertford East Branch left it between here and Broxbourne. The station platforms are staggered as such that barrier down times are not helped by stopping trains needing to perform station duties before departing over it.
