Note, on the extreme right, the 1950s British Railways sign pointing to the station: the dark blue colour was used at this time by the Eastern Region and nodded to the livery of the Great Eastern Railway, its predecessor. The "totem" logo used here is characteristic of the 1950s: it was designed by A.J. White shortly after the 1948 nationalisation of the railways, building on the London Underground bar-and-circle logo, and ceased to be used after the brand refresh of the early 1960s. The sign can be seen in more detail at Image and Image
