GWR Route: Banbury to Wolverhampton

Lapworth Station: gwrl947b

Close up of image 'gwrl947' showing the GWR 517 class at the head of a down Autotrain and the ornate timber bench seating and the buffer beam of the down bay. The Autotrain is most likely the Henley-in-Arden branch train which instead of running in to the up platform bay had been diverted in to the main down platform. In all probability this was due to the presence of traffic on the up line as indicated by the up starter signal being set in the 'off' position.
