Stange but true.... at Coldham

Recently, the Bramley Line has noted a number of vandalism acts being committed at Coldham. For Safety reasons, the access/egress gate at the crossing was locked up, as it was deemed that the track was becoming dangerous to those using it as a walkway.

As a result, someone obviously got very angry and damaged the Level Crossing gate. It was found damged by the team in early May. The damage can be clearly seen in the above photo.

Some repair work was carried out, to make to structure usable again. This gate was due to be repainted, but this has not happened as the time allocated for painting, was used up on repairing the gate. The wood which has been added as a short term measure can clearly be seen below.

We ask people to please be aware of vandalism problems that the line faces. Since the start of the year, there has been a number of vandalism issues at Coldham and Wisbech. If you see anyone on the track not wearing Orange Hi-Vis vests, please contact the British Transport Police on 0800 40 50 40.
