LMS Route: Coventry Loop Line

Humber Road Junction: lnwrcll103a

Close up showing the junction and signal box with open wagons loaded with ballast standing alongside the signal controlling access to the main line

Close up of image 'lnwrcll103a' showing the junction and signal box with open wagons loaded with ballast standing alongside the signal controlling access to the main line. The loop line is equipped with trap points on the down line and points to a short siding with buffer stops on the up line. This was to protect the main line from either wagons rolling backwards from the down loop line or a train on the up loop line over running the signal. The stacked sleepers would have been left over from the construction of the junction and loop line.
