Joy Daley, Doreen Foss and Jim Foss are shown outside the Signalbox Dairy, where they all work, in Revans Street, Featherston, in 1980. Restrictions on Saturday shopping in 1945 led to the spread of corner dairies, which were allowed to stay open over the weekend and sell a range of goods.

In the works yard at Darlington North Road are J39 0-6-0 numbers 64865, 64933 and 64917, shortly they will make their way across the road to the scrapyard. 64933 was for many years a Neville Hill engine and one which I've had many cab rids on while it was working the Marsh Lane pilot where I worked in the signalbox, it's boiler has also provided many mop buckets of warm water for washing the signalbox floor.

A foul day on the Durham Coast, Easington Colliery was to shut in May 1993. The Durham Coast route on the right is still there of course, but nothing remains of the colliery or sidings, the signalbox, just visible above the first wagon is long gone too

In response to a recent detailed posting on the Mersey Rails group, here is an image of the line going into the dock complex in front of Waterloo warehouse on the dock road in Liverpool. Taken in the early 1980s, the signal had been left after the line closed some years later, and presumably was controlled by a signalbox or possibly ground frame inside the dock wall.

In pregrouping days Carlisle Citadel Station was host to no less than seven different railway companies, each with its own distinctive livery in shades of red, blue, green brown and black. It must have been a colourful place quite possibly remembered in his childhood, by the porter seen on Platform 3 in this pictureJinty 0.6.0T No 47667 stands on a siding with coaching stock on 21st April 1962 as a train in the background departs for the south from Platform 4. Out of picture to the right on Platform 3 is the elevated station signalbox 4A, which still exists but no longer as a signalbox. The 4A signalman controlled entry of trains to the station and shunting movements within. When offered a train from the external boxes 4 or 5 he would lift a lock, permitting the necessary levers to be pulled in the external box.

After a quick turnaround, this pair are seen again passing the well known GC signalbox at Torside and crossing the B6105, with a set of empty mgr hoppers. The route along here often gives the appearance of being originally four tracked, as here. In fact this was not the case but rather the wide trackbed allowed for an almost continuous set of loops, into which slow freights could be put as necessary, in order to clear the way for faster trains or awaiting siding space nearer to Manchester.

This image was sent to me by retired railwayman Neville some year ago.I believe it to be his work. This was taken from Pallion signalbox, looking East toward Sunderland city centre. The former direct route Sunderland to Durham can clearly be seen centre image. It closed as a through route in 1964. All trace of the railway has gone here. The Tyne and Wear Metro route to South Hylton runs parallel to the original just off to the left of this image Moody industrial railway scenes like this were once commonplace in Britain. Almost all have been consigned to history.
