Stoke Road, Slough
The Chicken Ranch building was built in 1882 as The Leopold Coffee House. The name and date are still on the facade in the brickwork.
The idea behind it was the classic Victorian one of enticing drinkers away from the wickedness of the pubs.

Strangely, all these years later, a decent coffee could still pull that trick for me sometimes. Fried chicken couldn't.

Slough New signalbox - detail screen
This screen shows a detailed view of the Southall area, having been called up as described in http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1967932. Train 1T55 has just passed Southall station. The signaller has made all signal, point and track circuit information display, though normally these would be called up selectively depending on signalling needs. In addition, some items have been highlighted to demonstrate the capability to block use of facilities or highlight that a specific action is required.

Slough New signalbox - overview screen
An example of the computer-based screen and control system in use at Slough New signalbox. In this system, the signaller sees one or more screens providing an overview of his/her control area, on which there is a minimum of information necessary to monitor the progress of trains. Signalling and route-setting for trains is normally fully automatic by computer, based on the timetable for the area. Note that while trains' positions are shown (red lines on the screen) complete with their signalling identity tags (e.g. 1T55), other information is either abbreviated (e.g. SL for Southall which 1T55 is approaching) or absent. There are, for example, no signal, point or track circuit numbers shown. That information can be readily displayed by calling up a more detailed screen from the computer, such as http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1967948.
