Tour Scotland Video Train Half Barrier Level Crossing Forteviot Perthshire



Tour Scotland video of a ScotRail diesel passenger train crossing the half barrier level crossing at Forteviot, Strathearn, Perthshire, Scotland. These must be approached with safety in mind; be prepared to stop at the crossing, understand the warnings, lights, barriers, alarms. If the warnings activate, stop and remain stationary until all the warnings stop. Check that the exit is clear before driving across. Half barriers were considered to have an advantage as motorists are less likely to be stranded on the crossing and unable to exit, but cases where impatient motorists have driven around the barriers have raised safety concerns.

Tour Scotland Video Winter Drive Over Tay Road Bridge To Dundee



Tour Scotland Winter video of a drive North on the A92 road across the Tay Road Bridge which spans the Firth of Tay from Newport-on-Tay in Fife on ancestry visit to Dundee, Scotland. The bridge was designed by William Fairhurst and construction began in March 1963 with the infilling of West Graving Dock, King William Dock and Earl Grey docks in Dundee. The construction was undertaken by Duncan Logan Construction Ltd. Controversially, construction required the demolition of Dundee's Royal Arch where Queen Victoria had entered the city on a royal visit. Rubble from the Victoria arch was used as foundations for the on-ramp. The completed bridge was officially opened by the Queen Mother on 18 August 1966.
