Just crossed that little railwayline in my van yesterday.
Apparently, last year a car full of drunk teenagers hit it at the same crossing.Never realised it was armoured untill I read this so no wonder it caused such damage to them.

No...

It carried troops and anti aircraft guns up and down an area believe to be a potential German landing ground
