I'm just not agreeing, sorry... in times of disruption say, when all trains have been brought to a stop, and they finally get running again, to resume usual service, I'm sure many more than the usual may pass per hour in one direction trying to get service restored. Do they think of the level crossings then?
Also on the North Wales coast as we are speaking about, it is almost all long, straight, clear sighted for a good distance, an extra train an hour is not like crossing a road as pedestrian's often do with cars turning corners, driving at different speeds and often one car after another after another with minimal distance between and everyone manages. It just just doesn't add up. You can see and hear, on these long stretches, and extra train an hour really doesn't make any difference.
