Close up showing the track layout and the different types of buildings employed at Monument Lane goods yard

Close up of image 'lnwrml2188' showing the track layout and the different types of buildings employed at Monument Lane goods yard. The photograph shows three very tall lighting columns each carrying three lamps and a platform for maintenance. In addition to these large columns are three smaller single lamp versions. In front of the twin apex timber shed is a parachute water column. This was a type commonly found across the UK used by many railway companies. The vehicles are a mix of open wagons and vans with at least two 50 ft General Utility Vans seen on the siding adjacent to the timber shed.
