Kineton Station: smjk196
An eclectic mix of people gather on the platform of Kineton
station prior to the station being opened in 1871. On the right hand corner of
the building appears to be several point levers lying on their side prior to
being installed. In the centre is at least one surveyor with his either a
theodolite or dumpy level, and possibly two colleagues plus several officers of
the East & West Junction Railway. On the left are four men in labourers
attire, probably some of the railway navies employed in building the line. In
addition to the pony trap on the right are several assorted horse-drawn
trailers.
