I believe that work is still to commence? We had a discussion about it a few
weeks ago, it appeared then it has been dealt with as a separate planning

I've just noticed that in this pictu

there seem to be metal handrails for some steps leading down from the
now disused platform to the trackbed of the long-disused bay. What
are they for? Are they for access to a S&T cabinet, or something
similar?
