            The view looking east from Barrow's Green Lane and after the passage of a passenger train, unidentified Fowler Crab gets its coal train on the move out of the loop. 
In the distance LM Type 15 Widnes East Junction signal box guarding the Junction of the loop line via Tanhouse Lane and Widnes Central which closed in October 1964. 
* Very damaged neg that I scanned several years ago and have now restored due to its rarity value. Cannot find any written notes but have it in the back of my mind 'something' was written on the negative sleeve which is back in the hands of Eddie's son Paul. 
* One to research.
