This is on the A861 just near the junction with the B8007. Anyone know what it is for? I thought it might be to warn when the ferry is off but they seem to be flashing red lights and the screen is quite small.

White WigWags on a railway crossing on near Redstone Industrial estate crossing John Adams Way, Boston on the A16. The track is still present and I believe it feeds the dock area. I don't know if it is still used and the tracks are not 'shiny'.
