Date(s) filmed: 01/05/2023 | 02/06/2023 Videos filmed at: 01/05/2023) 13:48 | 13:57 02/06/2023) 13:24 | 13:28 Route: The Caterham Line Whyteleafe Station Crossing type: Manually Controlled Barriers crossing with CCTV (MCB-CCTV) Location: Whyteleafe Hill, Whyteleafe Trains featured: Lowering 1 (0:00): 377 621 (Southern) - 1:40 1P33 London Bridge ➡ Caterham - Lowering 2 (2:21): 377 626 (Southern) - 3:58 1P36 Caterham ➡ London Bridge - Lowering 3 (4:31): 377 206 (Southern) - 6:11 2P31 Purley ➡ Caterham - Lowering 4 (6:49): 377 612 (Southern) - 7:53 2P36 Caterham ➡ Purley A pair of videos each filmed on two different dates of trains at this level crossing, one of two public highway level crossings located on the Caterham Line from Purley within Whyteleafe near to the Surrey border with Greater London. This is the busier and larger of these two level crossings (in terms of vehicular and pedestrian usage), and it has six wigwags in total since two extra wigwags face down the same one-way side road on one side of the level crossing, each mounted above those for the main road on that side. The extra wigwag furthest from this side road flashes oppositely to the other three on that side of the level crossing for some odd reason. For Caterham-bound trains this level crossing isn't lowered until the train actually slows down into this station which greatly minimises barrier down time. For each Caterham-bound train featured, the full lowering has been left un-cut. Something that can also be noticed is that the red lights on the second date can be seen going straight into an alternating sequence in both lowerings filmed on that date as opposed to flashing twice simultaneously such as can be seen in the first pair on the first date about a month prior.
