GWR Routes: Banbury to Wolverhampton
GWR Routes: North Warwickshire Line
Moor Street Station: gwrms254a
Close up of image 'gwrms254' showing the terminus end of the
platform with three miscellaneous vehicles standing next to the traverser. The
limited space and the need to release locomotives to return to their
originating station with the coaching that they brought in meant that the
traverser was the only way of providing this facility. More commonly used in
railway engineering workshops a traverser effectively moved the locomotive
sideways so that it could run back on the parallel track.
