Several people were also spotted standing on the track, in Broxtowe, Notts, to take photographs, with one person lying down to pose.
In all, 22 examples of misuse were recorded in just nine days during a study of the crossing, situated within Attenborough Nature Reserve.
Network Rail’s Gary Walsh said: “This behaviour is absolutely shocking.
“The railway is not a photo opportunity and it is never safe to stop or hang around on the tracks.
“The two girls doing handstands are completely oblivious to the dangers they are putting themselves in.
“It could have ended in tragic consequences.”
