Army 254 is preparing to depart from Burton Dassett with the Industrial Railway Society's special train. The former Stratford-on-Avon & Midland Junction Railway station had a World War II LMS designed signal box which now lies derelict behind train. Such signal boxes were built during the war with reinforced concrete roofs and in some cases blast walls in order to offer signalmen more protection from enemy bombing.
