Metrolink 1006 leads a four car formation off the double track section from Altrincham and over the level crossing into Navigation Road. At the same point the Network Rail single track branches out to two lines again but on this side the overhead catenary was removed in 1992. With a tram in each direction every six minutes plus passenger and freight trains the barriers at this crossing are kept very busy.
