Gosford Green Goods Yard: lnwrcll117
View of the throat of Gosford Green goods yard during
construction and the footbridge provided for pedestrians. Humber Avenue was cut
into two when the railway was built compelling the LNWR to provide pedestrians
with the right of way over the route of the former road. On the extreme right
and at a slightly higher level than the yard is the Loop Line which would lead
onwards to Bell Green goods yard and Three Spires Junction. Once inside the
yard the points were operated by hand via levers equipped with a round weight
attached to the free end to assist in providing sufficient momentum in the
'throw'.
