The OX160 shunting signal is lit, but nothing has been this way for a very long time. This is the view from the sidings just to the north of Oxford station, looking towards the Banbury main line, with Walton Well Road bridge in the background. The steel span on the left is over the current, former GWR line, whilst the brick span on the right is over the former LMS route. The picture was taken on 21 August 1982. The line in the foreground was lifted in the late 1980s. |
