Close up of image 'lnwrrm2476' showing two of the timber buildings erected for use by the staff shunting the down sidings. Railway staff operating outside of the main station would require local facilities in order to reduce the time they would spend moving between the yard and the station. Break times would be governed by the arrival times of trains which might see periods of intense activity followed by periods when little traffic arrived. The five-arm signal bracket on the right is equipped with very short signal arms, the short arms indicating to drivers that they controlled sidings and not main line traffic.
