Woking Station: signalbox and class 73 electro-diesels, 1992

Uploader's Comments

View westward at the west end of the Fast line platforms, towards Basingstoke etc., also Guildford and Portsmouth: ex-LSWR Waterloo - the West main lines, junction for Portsmouth. The large, prominent power-signalbox dates from 6/37, at the time the station was rebuilt in connection with the electrification of the Portsmouth line. It was in use until 8/97 and has been preserved as a Listed Building. In the siding on the right are three Class 73 electro-diesel locomotives - in contrasting liveries, the one in Pullman colours is No. 73.101.
