Plate 220 shows Durran Hill South Sidings on 1 June 1963 from the windows of the signal box of the same name (/location-summaries/structure-306280) shortly after closure. This box, brought into use on 8 November 1891, was of wood construction, measured 22ft x 11ft 6ins x 12ft, received a replacement 30 lever tappet frame (6ins centres) in 1921 and closed on 12 May 1965. This view looking towards Carlisle, shows the sidings, incorporating improvements implemented during World War II, and so should be compared with the track layout in Figure 91. Duran Hill Junction signal box (/location-summaries/structure-306650) can be seen in the distance, and the larger of the cluster of buildings in the centre is the telegraph office (/location-summaries/structure-306320).
Plate 221 is an earlier view of Durran Hill South Sidings in 1935, photographed from bridge no 360 (/location-summaries/structure-306590), situated immediately south of Durran Hill Junction box.
