Close up of image 'smjel192' showing some of the narrow gauge side tipping wagons on the right as some of the workmen prepare to cycle home. Its perhaps no accident that in the foreground on the right a sleeper is strategically placed to bridge the shallow ditch, as the easiest way to the Ettington would have been via the E&WJR line to Ettington station. With a limited service in place for both goods and passenger traffic the workmen would have been quite aware of the timings of trains and able to avoid any accidents.
