Bearley Junction: gwrbj765a

Close up showing the Alcester line and both sets of tracks passing under the viaduct

This close up of image 'gwrbj765' shows the Alcester line branching away to the left and both sets of tracks passing under the viaduct. Although this photograph was taken just five or so years later than that seen in image 'gwrbj764' the ballast no longer covers the sleepers being dressed to the top of the sleeper. The raised ballast in the turnout and a little further on the curve indicates the line was still being completed when it was in operation. The signals have no 'X' on the arms the normal practice to denote the signals were not in operation.
