Lowestoft railway station - Suffolk - England. Feat: "The short hauled set"

[@henryhunter5026]

Interesting video. I remember Lowestoft Central from the 1950/early 60s and was appalled a couple of years ago when on a visit to the town to discover that some vandal had taken the roof off what was once a nice historic old building. Back in the day the old station was a hive of industry, during the summer it would be exceptionally busy with hundreds of holidaymakers arriving and departing.

...lovely HD video thank you, is a shame the semaphores have gone they added a great atmosphere to the station 👌

Thanks. Yes as you say, a shame that the semiphore signals (and I guess the signal box at some point) are no longer. You may find this video of some interest too. It was the last time that I saw Lowestoft station as it was. kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y4mzf4aOfLJ-lc0

I would have thought that these short sets use a greater value in fuel than they generate from passengers !
