Looking towards Redditch with the old Broom North signal box prior to it being replaced by Broom Junction signal box

Looking towards Redditch with the old Broom North signal box prior to it being replaced by Broom Junction signal box in 1938. It is assumed that as the photograph was taken four years after the signal box closed the box was disconnected. The signal rods from Broom Junction Signal Box run straight past the box and whilst there is evidence of levers being still in-situ no signalman is evident. The Permanent Way gang are working on the single line to Redditch whilst the LMS Permanent Way train has been stabled in one of the two sidings located in Broom Junction's goods yard.
