Or Harwich International as it is now known. This photograph from 1984 pre-dates the electrification of the branch. Note the concrete posted LNER semaphore signals still in location but out of use. Services to the station at this time were a mixture of loco hauled boat trains from London and Manchester and 2 car dmu services from Manningtree that terminated at Harwich Town, at the end of the branch.
