Also known as Brickyard Lane Level Crossing.
Half barrier crossing situated near Hucknall, north of Nottingham. It is one of several main line standard level crossings on the Nottingham Express Transit (NET) tramway. One track is used by trams on the NET, and the other line is used by main line trains, running between Nottingham and either Worksop or Mansfield Woodhouse. As a result, it makes it one of the busiest crossings for trains (and trams) in the UK. This crossing is a Locally Monitored Half Barrier Crossing. There are drivers white light indicators which operate when the crossing is active for both the main line trains and the trams.

In the last closure, I managed to film an occurrence at a half barrier crossing which has only been filmed at this crossing once before. One tram passes heading towards Nottingham, followed by a main line train on the other line heading towards Hucknall, and in that time, another tram departs nearby Butlers Hill tram stop, and passes heading towards Hucknall.

Thanks For Watching!
