Loco shed to the left with a set of points leading to a short shunt, allowing loco's to be reversed in for repairs. Drift leading down to the "Horizon mine" to the left & the minecar tippler station to the right. From the tippler station the coal came up a steep belt to the top of the screening plant, to descend via a series of grading screens & picking belts. By the time this photo was taken the screens were disused & all coal production was conveyed underground, to Woolley West Side.
