General notes

In the first half of the 20th century when Rosegrove was a major railway yard, it had two signal boxes. The signalman pictured here, Mr. L. Kay, maned the Eastern signal box. His job was to change the points on the track and to inform engine drivers when the line was clear for them to proceed.
