Whittlesey station (or Whittlesea as the station is named) is

just in the distance of this photograph where the starter signal can just be seen. It's a split platform with a large mechanical signal box located at the far eastern end at the level crossing where there is also a modern but rather small crossing box. The 10.00 Cambridge to Birmingham New Street service, worked by 170102, has not stopped at the station and is seen passing the home signal at the village's Harts Drove crossing, a user worked example where the drivers of vehicles have to contact the signalman for permission to cross.
