One above - Worksop?

Scrap that, facing crossover not trailing crossover.

On TeamSpeak earlier, Karl (headshot119) said he still didn't have a correct answer for #4.

Well, my top three guesses where it is are;

1: Between Buckley and Hawarden stations - either A55 road bridge or Drury Lane road bridge
2: Between Hope (Flintshire) and Penyffordd stations - Stryt Lane road bridge.
3: A483/Ruthin Road bridge (Unlikely, hence being 3[sup]rd[/sup] place).

Was actually a bit of a guess. Haven't been there 'in person' but have driven trains over there a few times and sometimes seen photos of it. LC is located right in/on the high street there, isn't it?

Well done UKTrainMan for getting number 4 correct with your number three answer. Rhos Robin foot crossing not far from the A483 road bridge.

I'm surprised that it's that location! Hardly looked like it from Google Maps/Earth.

That's why i didn't guess that after looking at the entire line from Wrexham Central to Bidston. Think I guessed every level crossing except that one.

Have a go at this one; freshly taken today. Bit blurry unforunately but it's sufficiently hard. :)

Gray street actually.

Here's a far better shot in so many respects!


That's the crossing that was destroyed by an HST sometime in the '90s .
