Looking towards Warwick beneath Station Road bridge showing the building housing the new signalling equipment on the left on 17th August 1969. The Power Box at Saltley would be commissioned within days thereby making scores of signal boxes in the area redundant. The building has been erected on the former track bed which led to the siding seen in image 'gwrhj107b' amongst others. The island platform has already been stripped of its substantial buildings and within a few weeks after the closure of the signal box nothing more would remain. On the right is the archway through which runs the single line branch to Stratford upon Avon.
