MRDEEDIESEL Posted October 31, 2014 Share Posted October 31, 2014 Hi,Not seen anything in the local press and in the railway press recently but does anyone know why the level crossing at Camperdown Junction Dundee has been closed and all the equipment(Barriers/Lights etc) removed??? A metal fence has now been installed into the gap.Has it closed for good or is it away to be replaced?? I also noticed that the connection to the former Dundee East Station has been isolated from the network.Shame as this was a wonderful location in "busier" times to see the trains. Thanks for any help/info. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MRDEEDIESEL Posted November 3, 2014 Author Share Posted November 3, 2014 Thanks for the link Richard.Must say im very surprised and saddened to read That Camperdown is no more. Would have thought that as its the West access to the docks(both vehicle and pedestrian) it still would have been required? Location lost a lot of its appeal when they destroyed the signalbox in 85 but certainly didnt think it would ever close. cheers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold JohnR Posted November 3, 2014 RMweb Gold Share Posted November 3, 2014 I seem to recall reading somewhere there was going to be works in Dock Street tunnel, are these going ahead, or did I imagine it? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MRDEEDIESEL Posted November 6, 2014 Author Share Posted November 6, 2014 I heard that there is planned works over Christmas at the station end as part of the Waterfront/Station redevelopement and of course the whole tunnel roof was strengthened a couple of years ago as part of the that as well Mind you the Graffiti painters been busy recently covering over all the stuff at the Camperdown incline but by the look of it he will have to come back!!! ;o) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
