BRITISH RAILWAY STEAM ERA MISCELLANY

Photographs in this gallery are of various items of railway trappings such as stations, signalboxes, engine sheds, signals and whatever else is not a locomotive. Took none of these, all have been bought and are part of my collection. These pictures are published for pleasure/information/research purposes only and are not for sale or copy under any circumstances. Information in captions has been researched as thoroughly as possible but its accuracy cannot be guaranteed.

LITTLEPORT - Opened in 1847, Littleport is today the first stop north of Ely on the line to Kings Lynn. In this picture looking north, dating from 1907, it can be seen that facilities were pretty basic even then and are equally basic today. Services are hourly in either direction and the station generated 238,000 passengers in 2014/15. The platform shelter on the right, was only recently destroyed by fire
