Who said our railways have been rationalized out of all recognition? Here we have a short bay and station sidings on the left see image 19856, a barrow crossing in the foreground, an industrial siding (into Brush - above the feathers) in the background, and a four-track main line. The area once occupied by sidings on the left is shortly to host 122 new dwellings. Notice the abbreviation of the Falcon works on the right, to about half the previous length.
