'Your continued support is much appreciated...' The heavily buttressed signal box at Shippea Hill, between Ely and Norwich, about to be passed by a westbound HST in the summer of 1997. Shippea Hill stands in a totally flat Fen landscape a considerable distance from any substantial settlement and sees very low passenger numbers. There is nothing remotely resembling a hill anywhere near here.
