Looking towards Aston from just north of Lawley Street bridge on
the Vauxhall viaduct on 5th August 1951. The signal bridge is still equipped
with lower quadrant LNWR signals with three posts on the left for down traffic
and on the right for up traffic. The lines ahead are 'additional down goods
line', 'down goods line' and up goods line. The signals were not just
controlling the lines ahead but also the crossovers in both direction. The
viaduct parapet has been removed on the left at the base of the signal bridge
in preparation of a new bridge being installed with LMS upper quadrant signals
(see image 'lnwrbhm_sa2322').
