Sumburgh 09/27 has a bay on the western side where vessels operate, and the TODA precludes the bay, as there is no control over the boats. There is also a road on the western airfield boundary which gets closed with barriers when aircraft movements are about to occur.
Londonderry aka The City of Derry Airport, has a railway line within a stones throw of the threshold runway 26. Back in 2005, the aircraft give way to train movements by holding.
The cunning plan to circumvent this annoyance for turbo props was to land on the shorter crossed runway, conditions & performance permitting.
