Looking towards the Birmingham to Leamington line with Hatton West Signal Box on the right on 17th August 1969

Looking towards the Birmingham to Leamington line with Hatton West Signal Box on the right on 17th August 1969, one month before its closure. The signal box was renamed Hatton West when the line from Hatton to Bearley was doubled. The north curve line (seen on the left) had been singled in 1968 at the same time as many sidings and loop lines were being removed. Shortly after the above photograph was taken the double track to Bearley was also singled.
