William Huskisson MP (Member of Parliament) was the first person to be killed by a train while crossing the tracks, in 1830.  Many more have died in the same way since then.  Don't take a chance: stop, look, listen.

"Level crossings are safe, unless they are used in an unsafe manner."  Discuss.

The very same! I remember the numerous photographic stops with enthusiasts swarming all over the tracks and not a hi-vis anywhere in sight. Wonderful times  Cheesy
