William Huskisson MP▸ 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.

None is Melksham or even in the Melksham Community Area (see http://melksham.communityarea.org.uk/) .... and none is Pill Tunnel. Where is Pill Tunnel, b.t.w. |

3 is Station Road, Holt. I must admit that I needed to do quite a bit of Googling/cheating to find this  |

Yes indeed - No. 3 is Station Road, Holt. That was a tough 'un too. Holt was the junction where the line from Trowbridge to Chippenham (still part of the TransWilts) diverged from the line to Devizes and Patney and Chirton. The station was named "Holt", but was well outside the village down the sleepy road shown in this picture. The station site is now private. I expect Arlett's have a branch / office in Melksham |

I must admit that I needed to do quite a bit of Googling/cheating to find this so my method worked but as melk was the first result i automatically gave up  You two are quite shocking!  |
