    Nice video of the gates! Just so you know (in case you didn't already), this crossing is currently being upgraded to one with two full barriers, alarms and two pedestrian lights. The upgrade should be completed by the 18th of November, so as of now, with the upgrade process undergoing, there are no more crossings on this line that have the mechanical gates unfortunately. However, the signal box will retain control of this crossing from my understanding (like with East Farleigh and Wateringbury), which is something to retain the old-feel to this line, which is sadly working its way out.

      Thanks for letting me know, I've been out of touch ever since I moved to Southampton. Just seen a video of the crossing and it looks very good, NR even kept one of the antique road signs

    I did some principles testing in this signal box, Easter 2001. Happy days.

      It's a shame they'll remove it soon

    Since Easter, this box now fringes to the Gillingham CC rather than Ashford NK1 at Strood.
    Lines to Aylesford are Track Circuit Block throughout.

    Liking the now disused 'axel weight' to the side.

    Not quite Nathan. Snodland was recontrolled to Aylesford panel about two years ago. Cuxton has no CCTV's at all.
    There is no piece added on the gates; what has misled you is that there is an extra vertical to support the droprod or "poker" as the "bottle box" is not in the gutter as usual. That looks like Martin working the gates.....Plans to move to Gillingham CC are on hold I think, but whether gates continue is another matter. Keep up the good work....

      +Nick Wellington I thought it might have been moved to Aylesford, as I presume the section at New Hythe did before the crossing there closed also? Those gates do look unusual though, and they are small
