I've heard about the crossing and accident...McK&H.Aust wrote:There was another crossing south of Gerogery where the Olympic Hwy crossed the railway line. I remember seeing a picture and it also had 8x24 lights. In 2001 five teenagers were killed when their car was hit by the XPT at the crossing. After the accident they installed gates at the crossing and then built a overpass a couple of years later https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gerogery_ ... g_accident
This is where the crossing used to be https://www.google.com.au/maps/@-35.879 ... a=!3m1!1e3
In fact, I was reading about it earlier today.
But anyways, I noticed that you can make out where the old highway alignment used to make a sharp turn into the crossing. Apparently, the crossing was also located in the middle of an intersection...
...and it was the NSW cousin of High Street, Reservoir.
