Catching the last of the evening summer sun a British Railways (London Midland) running-in sign is seen attached to the front of Chester No. 4 signal box. Notice that the sign is made up of four large enamel pieces bolted together. As always when I see these items in my old photographs, and knowing them to no longer be there (No. 4 box was decommissioned in early May 1984 and knocked down during the following summer) I wonder where this fine sign ended up......?
