Allsports in Gloucester
Despite its name, Allsports at 126-128 Eastgate Street does not sell footballs, cricket bats or croquet mallets. Its interpretation of sports is the older one of the recreation of hunting, shooting, or fishing. Text on a window shows HUGE DISCOUNTS ON RODS & REELS. The shop's main business is the buying and selling of air weapons, modern or antique.
Asian European Store http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/4266650 is on the right.

Barton Street Junction Signal Box, Gloucester
A very restricted area resulted in this very distinctive Midland Railway signal box mounted on a massive gantry spanning the tracks. Immediately beyond it is Barton Street level crossing, & beyond that the junction for the High Orchard branch (to the docks). On the left is what was then All Saints Church, a significant building, see:

I am standing on Eastgate Station & the approaching train is a single-car DMU that will take the direct line to Stratford-upon-Avon (part of which is now the Gloucestershire & Warwickshire Railway), a service that will cease within a few months with the closure of the line across the Cotswolds to passenger traffic.
Eastgate Station closed in December 1975 - a victim of the road lobby that wanted level crossing in the city to be removed. All trains between the Midlands & Bristol now either have to reverse at Central Station or not stop at Gloucester. The site is now an Asda supermarket.
