Signalman Adrian Vaughan.
It was a nice sunny June day and I was photographing at Clink Road Junction, my girlfriend and I were sitting on the embankment opposite Clink Road box hoping to photograph a few Westerns, when the signalman come out of box and came across to us I thought he was going to tell us we were trespassing and to clear off , but no he invited us into the box and made us a cup of tea , that was the start of a long friendship with signalman Adrian Vaughan I later spent many happy hours photographing in the Signal Boxes that Adrian worked, the above picture was taken at Witham on 26/05/1975. L to R my girlfrend Lesley, Susan, Adrians wife and the man himself. I am still intouch with Adrian who now live,s in Norfolk. For the record the Western,s . seen at Clink Road Junction on the day I first met Adrian were, 1001/09/12/15/28/31/33/34/37/44/46/48/50/54. Class 50,s 50018/30/38/44/46. 47,s 47059/63/93/ 128/189/258/438. 33,s 33015/25. 31286. 46028. KC. If you wonder what they were looking at a herd of cow's in the field behind the box were just running around like mad the farmer had only just put them in the field and they seemed to enjoying themselves.
