With no fewer than ten semaphore arms in view, the

eastern end of Lincoln station is seen on this pleasant late summer's evening. In the foreground are four up homes all controlled by Pelham Street Junction box that is seen in the distance just under the Pelham Street/Canwick Road viaduct constructed in 1958 to replace yet another congestive level crossing. In the centre distance is the impressive junction bracket. The left-hand doll was for the former Midland and Great Central Market Rasen route to Grimsby whilst the home and distant to the right were for the Sleaford route. The two smaller signals in the centre controlled entry to the depot and yard roads. Whilst then track layout in Lincoln's station throat is similar today all this delightful signalling was wiped away when the Lincoln Signalling Centre opened in 2008.
