Close up of image 'mrwhg348' showing the Front Fan Arrival Roads with Washwood Heath Sidings No 3 Signal Box in the middle of the photograph. The forest of signals and gantries show that unlike many goods yards a marshalling yard such as Washwood Heath sidings was operated under the total control of the block system whereby each section of line was controlled by a signal box.
