1126, 10.10 Salisbury-Reading, Salisbury East Yard Thumping its way away from Salisbury through the East Yard Class 205 set 1126 is seen working the 11.10 Salisbury to Reading service. This view of the East Yard reveals the former and now boarded-up signal box behind the rear of the train. I know very little about this former box that was presumably a L&SWR structure predating the 1902 built electro-pneumatic box; unless anybody else can advise? Also, notice the fine array of wagons away to the right. Having got 'official' access to the yard I wish, in retrospect, that I had gone almost them and recorded more details!

Thumping its way away from Salisbury through the East Yard

Class 205 set 1126 is seen working the 11.10 Salisbury to Reading service. This view of the East Yard reveals the former and now boarded-up signal box behind the rear of the train.
