Can I ask a supplementary question? Whereabouts in London (or even in
the
whole of Britain) is the closest pair of level crossings in terms of the
length of road (not railway) between them? I'm talking about separate
crossings with separate sets of barriers. I can think of a pair which
are
very close, but I want to see if you suggest the same ones.


To kick this one off Martin. There are two in Crawley about 500 metres
apart.

I can't imagine that they are the closest though - any better out there?

Vine Road, Barnes - there's room for only about 6 cars between the level
crossing on the Hounslow loop line and the level crossing on the Windsor
line:

That's the one I was thinking of - unless anyone can think of a pair of
crossings that are even closer than that.
