Default Level Crossings on busy lines

I'm interested in level crossings on busy lines.
One of these is on Vine Road in Barnes, which also
has another a few yards away crossing the Hounslow
Loop. As the latter has at least another 8tph, car
drivers on that road have 25 tph to contend with.


This part of the Hounslow Loop presumably has freight trafic as
well, since there is a curve at Kew Bridge specifically for it.


Yes. Is there any online information about freight paths, particularly
concerning freight trains on the Hounslow Loop and the NLL?

The only other road which would seem to come close to Vine Lane

[Vine *Road*]
is Bollo Lane, which also has two level crossings.


Peak 8tph on NLL plus the freight trains on the other crossing
(NLL-Hounslow Loop link).
