The small sign to the right of the station sign with the figure '6' has the word 'cars' below indicating to drivers of DMUs that 6 car units that they should stop opposite.

Behind the two cement wagons is a mobile road crane for unloading heavy objects including the early railway containers which fitted on to four wheel flat wagons. To the right of the photograph can be seen a warning sign - "Passengers must not to cross the line except by means of the footbridge".
