The rails are laid on an anual basis if you are unfortunate enough to live near it the screeching noise increases towards spring, this rackret was one of the reasons Hyndburn Council moved to Scaitcliffe Houese from the old skill centre'' it is said that only certain carriages can negotiate it at speed as the catch points can only take a little strain main line 'intercity trains csnnot cross it ,so yes it is unique in that respect.
