Activity inside St Botolphs signalbox, Colchester, on 27th March 1983. The signalman is on the phone making arrangements to turn an engineer's train via the Hythe triangular junction. This was a tricky task, involving reversals at Hythe and St. Botolphs in between the regular trains. The box was closed down in July that year.
