In the November issue of Railway magazine, it seems that on all East Anglia routes the semaphore signals, signal boxes and manual level crossings will be replaced by 2019. Should we be interested in these?

Re: Level Crossings
I was just watching this video of the then new Slaggyford extension of the South Tynedale Railway and they have a new level crossing and signalbox so it seems level crossings can still be built. Admittedly the road is a minor one but still about the same as the one at Wetwang station.

As long as there is a safety case and all the boxes are ticked and all parties have been approached and approval given it is possible but its a long process the downladable document in the link explains the process
And was given to the current infrastructure director
