Another close up of the LMS built Coaling plant and the approach lines with a coal wagon ready to be discharged

Another close up of the LMS built coaling plant and the approach lines with a coal wagon ready to be discharged. The ramp was positioned at footplate height allowing the crew to alight with ease. Because the discharge chutes were at either end of the structure there were two control cabins to match. The coal wagons accessed the coaling plant from the other side and were raised and tipped on a hoist fixed to the side of the plant.
