The National Rail sign announces the location of Colchester Town station - a rather surprising survival on the rail network at the end of a short branch line, but much more convenient for the shopping centre than Colchester's main station. Surprisingly, although the station was renamed in 1991, there is still reference to 'St Botolph's'. Colchester became a city in November 2022 but the station has not been renamed again to reflect this new status.
