More about this scene
An up train is about to depart for Plymouth. This view is rich in detail, including the station buildings, the footbridge, a water tower, semaphore signals, lamps and very tall telegraph poles. There is a large goods siding and shed to the left (now the bus station), while on the right are smaller sidings with animal pens, a loading gauge and a shunting signal. A tank engine with a goods train waits for the main line to clear.
