No, I couldn't identify any 'Tauntons' in that original post.  Mind you, that doesn't mean much, with my own appalling record of failing to spot any Taunton pictures.  Embarrassed

Nevertheless, picture 6 is rather scary.  Grin

William Huskisson MP (Member of Parliament, or Mile Post - a method of measuring the railway in miles and chains from a starting point - usually London, depending on context) 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.
