Seen from the level crossing at the end of Southgate.
I have boyhood memories of the North Country Continental (Manchester - Harwich) pulling in at the platform on the right with the engine blocking the level crossing. In pre-bypass days that would bring the whole town to a halt, with the resultant congestion taking a good 15 minutes or longer to sort itself out.
