Trains...

Jeez, how many X'trapolis trains do you need!? (Comeng trains aren't really common on the Northern and Burnley groups now days due to the amount of X'trapolis train we have now compared to a few years ago.)

Yeah, but there's usually no need to repost it if it's no different from what's already on the site. No need to get angry, y'know?

Pretty sure that's the rail yard right there, where it's common to see that happen. :Tongue1: If I had to guess, maybe Street View went by there on a weekend, where service is probably reduced from weekdays?

I was not angry. :cool: :TUP2: Sorry if I came across as angry. Its just that I don't want to check every crossing that I come across to see if it is already on the site.

Wow, I'd be curious to know how many trains per day this crossing receives!
