View of the gas works signal box as the signalman and fireman ready to exchange the train train staff

View of the gas works signal box as the signalman, with raised arm and the fireman leaning from the cab, ready themselves to exchange the train train staff. Bob Essery dates this photograph to later than 1903 because 'there is no sign of the second lamp holder which should be evident on the front of the engine platform', 1903 being when the headlamp codes were rationalised. c1910
