In this 1970 view the road bridge was a new feature having replaced a busy level crossing the previous year. Both the gates and the signal box, which was closed at the same time, were still in situ. It is 4.20pm according to the platform clock and a freight train is about to rumble through watched by a couple of lads on the steps.
