Thanks,
The poem echoes the way the man speaks. He has a Mark 2 open carriage parked on a short length of track, has kept the the trackway at original level, the platforms are joined by a flat bridge.
The day after he and his son had completed re-building the original signal box the violent storms that hit the country reduced it it to matchwood. So he rebuilt one in conchrete.
A remarkable man,
JG
