Famous as one of the busiest crossings in the world. The Starbucks across the street is where shots of this busy sea of people was filmed for the film "Lost in Translation." Today, there are signs all around demanding you buy a coffee before taking pictures.
It might be interesting to point out that this was taken by setting my camera on 2 second delay, pressing the button and then periscoping my tripod (on which the camera is mounted) high above my head and just hoping it was pointed at something interesting. (It took a few shots get something remotely level)
Tredington Crossing is located between Cheltenham and Ashchurch. The crossing keeper's lodge dates from the opening of the line by the Birmingham & Gloucester Railway in 1840. It may have originally been a single storey building with the second storey added at a later date. The design is clearly derived from a roadside tollhouse and all the original windows were narrow and situated on the railway side of the building only - a result of the unpopular window tax which was not repealed until 1851. Unfortunately the narrow, paired windows on the top floor have been replaced by larger modern units.
When this picture was taken on 8th August 1989 the crossing was in the process of being automated and the building had been vacated prior to demolition, which occurred the following year.
A similar crossing lodge survives at nearby Brockhampton and another of very similar design but built by the Bristol & Gloucester Railway can be found at Oldends Lane Crossing, Stonehouse.

Crossing Mnisose (“minne-show-she”) tells the story of one of America's first feminists, Sacajawea, and draws a line from a completely original view of Lewis and Clark to the present day, as descendants of the Dakota and Lakota Nations continue their fight for the Mnisose (or what Europeans named the “Missouri River”) and the lands that contain the burials of their ancestors. From celebrated playwright, activist, and attorney Mary Kathryn Nagle (Cherokee Nation), whose Manahatta captivated audiences at Oregon Shakespeare Festival.

im still on the hunt for lots of 9v straight pieces. meanwhile it is possible for top n tail locos to continue to cover short spaces on non electrified track.
A zebra crossing is a type of pedestrian crossing used in many places around the world. Its distinguishing feature is alternating dark and light stripes on the road surface, resembling the coat of a zebra. A zebra crossing typically gives priority to pedestrians.
Zebra crossings were originally introduced in law by section 18 of the Road Traffic Act 1934.
Although the origin of the name is disputed, it is generally attributed to British MP James Callaghan who, in 1948, visited the country's Transport Research Laboratory which was working on a new idea for safe pedestrian crossings. On being shown a black and white design, Callaghan is said to have remarked that it resembled a zebra.
After isolated experiments, the zebra crossing was first used at 1,000 sites in the United Kingdom in 1949 in its original form of alternating strips of blue and yellow. They were introduced nationally in 1951.
In 1971, the Green Cross Code was introduced to teach children safer crossing habits, replacing the earlier "kerb drill".
A herd of Holstein-Friesian cows crossing a road at a dairy farm on the Point Reyes Peninsula in Marin County, California. No traffic monitor......the seemingly endless stream of cows simply cross the road at will....cars proceed with caution.
Point Reyes on the coast of Marin County in Northern California is a 100-square-mile peninsula of dark forests, wind-sculpted dunes, endless beaches and plunging sea cliffs. In the area east of Tomales Bay are located a number of old dairy farms that were established in the mid-19th and early 20th centuries. In 1846, after California had attained statehood, the entire peninsula was divided into more than 30 tenant dairy ranches. That legacy is still evident today from the 15 remaining historic working ranches in the park's 'Pastoral Zone'. Most of the original dairy ranches were named utilizing the letters of the alphabet while some were bequeathed more poetic names like 'Drake's Head', 'Muddy Hollow', 'Oporto' and 'Sunnyside'.
I spent an hour or so at Marholm Crossing on 13 September 1989 photographing trains on the ECML and on the Peterborough-Leicester line - these lines run side-by-side at this point. Here is the gate-keeper at Marholm opening the gates for a car to cross. It seems almost incredible now that such a scene could be seen at this time - a level crossing (used quite infrequently) crossing 4 very busy mainline rail tracks.

Diagonal crossing. Isn't this smart?
The Second Severn Crossing (Welsh: Ail Groesfan Hafren) is a bridge which carries the M4 motorway over the River Severn between England and Wales, inaugurated on 5 June 1996 by Charles, Prince of Wales to augment the traffic capacity of the original Severn Bridge built in 1966. The bridge marks the lower limit of the River Severn and the start of the Severn Estuary.
The Shoots channel is the deepest section along the width of the Severn estuary, and a longer span was required to ease the passage of shipping under this section. The central bridge section, called the Shoots Bridge, is of cable-stayed design and the central span (between the bridge pylons) is 456 m (1,500 ft) in length. The approach viaducts are of a segmental bridge design. Its Welsh end is near Sudbrook, Monmouthshire and its English end at Severn Beach in South Gloucestershire. The crossing forms a gentle S shape and near the English side crosses over the top of the Severn railway tunnel.
The sides of the bridge are fitted with special railings to reduce lateral wind loads coming from the Severn estuary onto the traffic and this has reduced the number of times that speed restrictions have been needed. The overall design of the new crossing makes it more resistant to high winds than the old Severn Bridge.

Well, I'm not crossing over the railway line from this point as that would be more than dangerous! Just looking along the railway line towards Prestwick Railway Station and the pedestrian crossing!

In rural areas, cows take precedence over people. The cars will just have to wait as a dairy herd heads to the barn (with little human guidance).
A zebra crossing is a type of pedestrian crossing used in many places around the world. Its distinguishing feature is alternating dark and light stripes on the road surface, from which it derives its name. A zebra crossing typically gives extra rights of way to pedestrians and not actual Zebras.

I have been a bit busy lately, didn't had much time for pictures but I am catching up, some new textures in making also:-))
The wildlife crossing overpass is a signature of Banff national park, Alberta, and I have driven under it for countless times. It all of sudden became an interesting foreground on such a stormy day.
Basin Road crossing as seen from the footbridge next to Stockbridge Road. Part of the Brighton to Portsmouth line (LBSCR), the gates near Chichester station always seem to decend very early causing large traffic and pedestrian queues.
