- Add the Straight Track: Use the included straight wooden track piece to extend your railway, connecting it to either side of the crossing as needed to fit your layout.

3. Operating the Railway Crossing
The railway crossing features movable barriers designed for interactive play. These barriers control the flow of road traffic over the railway tracks.
3.1 Barrier Operation:
- Lowering Barriers: To simulate a train approaching, gently push the red barriers downwards. They will pivot to a horizontal position, blocking the road and indicating that road traffic should stop.
- Raising Barriers: Once the train has passed, gently lift the red barriers upwards. They will pivot to a vertical position, opening the road for traffic to resume.

This interactive feature encourages imaginative play and helps children understand basic traffic safety concepts related to railway crossings.
