View NE, towards Chester; ex-GWR Shrewsbury - Chester main line. This station had been closed on 3/3/52. It remained open for goods until 1/11/64, although this is not apparent from the photograph, which shows a typical GWR Up express (headed by a 'County' class 4-6-0) and GWR lower-quadrant signal.
