A few more pictures from the trip to Essex last month - not strictly East Anglia but close enough. All of these pictures were taken at the end of the day and as the clocks hadn't yet gone forward, it was literally the last few minutes of daylight. Fortunately with modern digital cameras and photo editing software, they have come out "reasonably"
Firstly, Southend and the Viatrons.
Second example, note this bracket still has scrollwork above the bracket, the first one had lost this.

You can just make out the "G" of GEC on the top centre front of the canopy.
Simon C had tipped us off to there being some GEC 9454s but A and C variants. Luckily we stumbled across them....
Sleeved concrete with GEC Z9454A.

And now for the GEC Z9454C:

Simon C mentions he has no idea why these lanterns were specified for that location. If they are still there in 6 months time, it would be good to see what they look like at night – waiting for dark now and travelling time makes a bit of a no go for me at present – if I want to get back home before midnight! Perhaps David can take some "atmospheric" nights shots..
