MARCH SOUTH

The level crossing at March South is a terrible spot for photographs with the the exception of up trains and freight leaving the up loop. There is no pavement, nowhere to park, house right up against you on your right and it's on a sharp bend. The outsikde of the bend is really no better and the sun is against you all day. Mind you, the signalbox is well worth a picture in it's own right.
