Quote Members of the public are invited to attend an open day at Colthrop level crossing near Thatcham in Berkshire on Wednesday 10 October between 10am and 3pm, where they will be able to meet railway workers from across the industry, including the team who work at the crossing and signal box, as part of Rail Week. Follow the link for details of how to book. Having attended the open evening at Kintbury Crossing Box, I'd recommend this one.
