I stand to be corrected but don't think there are any
[Tyne & Wear Airport Extension] LC that are not at
stations, and therefore the train is always stationary
with the driver able to sight the LC before he sets off again.


That only works in one direction!


But you snipped Paul's first sentence in the above quote,
which included the words

all the stations seem to be split with the
platforms on either side of the level crossing.
