I seem to recall they were regular sites back in the early fifties. I was not far from you Howard - born and living in Muswell Hill.
A quick dirty wash Brian will soon have the level crossing looking even better.

It was Howard. Flew the aircraft for most of the flight.

Must have been quite an experience Brian - how old was the aircraft?
