Wall Mounted Post Box, Saxmundham Railway Station, Saxmundham, Suffolk, UK - Victorian Post Boxes on Waymarking.com

At the side of the former entrance to the Booking Office.
Station buildings are 'awaiting work...' I hope the post box survives!

Interesting that the box has a flap, to help keep the post dry!


From: wikipedia (visit link)
Saxmundham railway station serves the town of Saxmundham in Suffolk.
It is located on the East Suffolk Line and is 22 1/2 miles (36.2 km) north east of Ipswich.

The signalling centre for the East Suffolk line is located in the signal cabin on the Lowestoft bound platform. This formerly served as the control centre while the line was signalled using the Radio Electronic Token Block system (RETB).

The station is served by Abellio Greater Anglia, which operates services between Ipswich and Lowestoft.

A branch line which formerly ran to Aldeburgh on the coast from just north of Saxmundham is still used for traffic to the nearby Sizewell Power Stations.
