An elevated view!

The railway line crosses Lincoln High Street, so flashing lights and the sound of alarm bells are a common occurrence. The foot bridge over the line had been out of commission for a long time, but a new one was recently opened.
   
We were in to town for B’s appointment at the opticians. I got random bits and pieces which have been on the list for a while, whilst I waited for him. As I approached the crossing the gates began to close, so I nipped up the steps to get a view of the train leaving the station.
