View of an unidentified ex-GWR 2-6-2T 'Prairie' locomotive
which has been given the road to proceed towards joining the main line at
Tyseley station. Bob Pixton states that the locomotive is emerging from a pair
of goods sidings and to the south of the sidings were a pair of up and down
goods loops. The two sets of signals seen seen above are fitted with arms that
were short and fitted with hoops. This was a common method of aiding locomotive
staff in busy areas where multiple sets of signal could be seen as denoted
whether the signals controlled goods sidings etc or the main running lines.
