Car on level crossing at Petersfield station, Hampshire on the London Waterloo to Portsmouth Harbour line


Highlighting the dangers of road transport passing across railway tracks, this image illustrates a car passing over a level-crossing (with barriers). The signal for the trains are on red, demonstrating it is clear for the car to cross. The sign attached to the signal also illustrates the danger to pedestrians through the risk of electrocution if the line is crossed in an inappropriate place. The two train lines are traveling into the distance illustrating the the crossing is not a priority but a path laid between the tracks. It also serves to emphasize the speed a train can be traveling along such lines.
