Dovercourt
The signal cabin name still carries the name Dovercourt Bay (the Bay had been dropped 4 years earlier) at Dovercourt station on 15th August 1976. The view is across the bay towards Parkeston Quay. The opposite down platform became redundant in 1968 when all passenger traffic between Parkeston Quay and Harwich Town was transferred to the up line. The down platform and signal cabin were removed in the 1980s during electrification.
