Is this similar to what you saw?

Good old Google.

Thanks Dave Rowland for the picture of the Coal Tax Post. The post at Chadwell Heath is about 9' tall. It is a basic stone structure more what you might find in a graveyard. Until a few years ago there were the remains of a cast plate attached. I'll stick with 'Coal Tax Post' until I hear something more convincing! It is nearer to what was the general view of long gone Drivers who always had a great knowledge of the areas outside the Railway in which they they worked. They were always good at pointing out the areas where famous people lived or where notable events had occurred.

Um, if i can get this thread back on "track", between Rugby and the site of the former Kilsby and Crick station, there is a monument to a father and son who were killed during the line's construction.

A few meanderings along the way perhaps, but not OFF track - the last posting before yours still referred to the original monument.....? :)
