Southport (Portland Street) Level Crossing, Merseyside

☺️ ~ the class 507, 508 look similar to the 313 [without the pantograph ~ 3rd rail shoe only] an unusual alarm tone - the 2 tones sound reversed to the normal tone we hear at other crossings, and my mind can flip the tone around to how I perceive it should sound 🧐

Great video and crossing! Definitely a rather nice crossing there, love the way the alarms sound. That one sign next to the crossing is also very faded, lol.

[@SouthEastLevelCrossings]

Thank you! Yeah I really liked this crossing because of the alarm sound and that unique bracket. That 'no entry' sign for that side road is hardly read-able.

Excellent Video and Crossing!👍🏻👍🏻 Must have taken you ages to get to this crossing!

[@SouthEastLevelCrossings]

Thank you! I've been further.

The alarms on this crossing sound very similar to St Dunstans St level crossing in Canterbury Kent and Manor Way London (though the latter crossing has shut down therefore defunct).

[@SouthEastLevelCrossings]

Pretty much the same type of alarm, and similar in the way they're always sounding different every time it's filmed, though I find these a fair bit lower-pitched-sounding overall

Excellent video and Crossing 👍

[@SouthEastLevelCrossings]

Thanks very much!

Good video. The class 777 are in service now so it’s not long till the 507s and 508s will be gone

[@SouthEastLevelCrossings]

Thanks! Yeah it seems like it's definitely the beginning of the end for them.

Could you do chapel road in Southampton

[@SouthEastLevelCrossings]

I have done previously when I caught the barriers failing to lower.
