Does it mention the (unmanned) railway crossing that goes nowhere? I was early when I went to see Kevin - so thought I'd go through and explore the other side. Being the fens, the lines/crossing are higher than the road, so when  you stop the car, you don't see over. I opened the gates, drove across, shut the gates - all without realising there was nowhere to go on the other side.

WTF.
 
Kevin told me that until a few years ago, it was a manned crossing. Easiest job on the railways.
