This 128-page book charts the rise of the level crossing and its development to become safer as the railways became faster.Through its 11 chapters, renowned rail safety expert Stan Hall looks at the different designs of crossings from humble foot crossings through to those protecting roads from high-speed main lines. The book also looks at major accidents and actions introduced after them.There is also a detailed look at level crossings in Europe and the rest of the world. An interesting book, which will also appeal to modellers, and one that covers a subject of which little has been committed to mainstream railway print.
