Close up of image 'mra137' showing the Midland Signal Box sited opposite the Bearley branch and the truncated track at the start of the branch. Initially the Alcester Railway considered to build their terminus alongside the Midland Railway station. It was deemed that the cost was prohibitive and an arrangement was entered into with the MR for the use of their station at a cost of £150 per annum, and a proportional contribution to working expenses.
