East Kent Resignalling 2011
Phase 1 Last Rites
3 aspect signal at Faversham, 24TH dCEMBER 2011

Robert Armstrong grew up in Canterbury and was visting his home county over Christmas, so could witness the last rites of the signalling he has grown fond of over the years.

The last day of operation for the old signalling was Christmas Eve.

This is a three aspect signal with route indicator at Faversham.
