Good morning from what was up to a few minutes ago sunny Suffolk. Coffee has been had after a very poor night's sleep - I feel like I may have the start of a cold

Today will be a domestics day followed by a quick trip to Morrisons for this week's food shopping.

According to AI...

That unique distinction belongs to Halesworth railway station on the East Suffolk Line.

While several stations in Suffolk have a level crossing at one end of the platform (like Westerfield or Stowmarket), Halesworth historically featured a setup so constrained by space that it required a very unusual engineering solution.

👍

Another case of AI hallucinations - Halesworth only has a foot crossing at the southern end of the station.

I'm now going to have to keep an eye on the podcast mentioned by @Speicher for the answer

The recycling bin has also been emptied and needs to be retrieved and moved back to its normal resting place.

I don't think Crianlarich is in Suffolk! I'm sure it was in Scotland the last time I went there!

Yes, very well spotted. I thought of Crianlarich in Scotland, before being told about Suffolk.

I think they choose a question that you cannot goggle or ai the answer.

@Reynard and @Jenkins

Do you know if there is a railway station, in Suffolk, that has a level crossing at each end of a platform?

Geoff Marshall on YouTube may have something. On every station.
