Great Central Railway Loughborough Leicestershire 29th March 2016

Great Central Railway Loughborough Leicestershire 29th March 2016
All signals are showing Red.

Al watches out for the S&T men who will manually reset the facing points over to Loughborough platform 2 so we can rejoin our train with Stanier 8F 2-8-0 48624. They were sorted but it took us 25 minutes to get there which resulted in the 13.15 service to Leicester departing 10 minutes down.

Who/what are 'S&T men'?
Is Al a signaller or loco crew?
A great array of semaphores!

S&T = Signal & Telegraph
Al is my driver. He had been on the phone (small grey box to his right) to the signalman.
The large gantry came from Leicester Central station that closed in 1969.
