Crossing keeper, operating the ground frame, Burneside SD503954 
 Having closed the crossing gates over the minor road in Burneside village, the crossing keeper operates the ground-frame that will pull off the home signal to allow a train to pass. This is a remarkable survival of Victorian Infrastructure in a sea of digital signalling! I suspect that the cost of manning the crossing will lead to it being automated very soon.
