Hampton - Derby Junction: lnwrhiaj707c
This close up of image 'lnwrhiaj707' showing the original
B&DJR station building with the sign 'Derby Junction' displayed above the
door to the station office and waiting room. The use of an bay window for the
station office would allow station staff to view the platform and approaching
trains, an occasional feature also found at other stations including Kenilworth
station (see image 'lnwrk150c'). The number of
passengers is surprising given the fact that the number of trains timetabled at
this time were few and far between. Looking through the window is at least one
member of the station staff. Whilst the passengers are in general dressed in
their "Sunday Best" the man on the left appears to be wearing a more country
apparel.
