What's happening with a response from the Coffee Shop? If nothing I'll submit my comments personally, though a quasi User Group will lend much more weight to them.

Sorry, John!

Even as we speak (write?), I'm finalising our forum's response for submission. And your contribution is very much appreciated!

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.
