Img: Int1 - Stevens & Son leverframe which is still in use as a ground frame controlling movements within Bournemouth Traincare Depot. Notice the four short travel levers to the left hand end the frame. The piece of carpet laid on the frame is used to cut down the draught through the frame during quiet periods, this is an essential feature in the winter months.

Img: Int2 - There are only ten working levers used to operate the pointwork and mechanical signalling (ground disc signals) within the Bournemouth Traincare Depot, the rest are spares (painted white) left over from the days when the box controlled the spur lines to Bournemouth West Station, access to the S&D/SR locomotive depot (now a private car park) and the Bournemouth West carriage sidings, most of which are now controlled by ground levers. The carriage sidings are used for stabling Class 442 Wessex Electric EMU sets used on the Waterloo-Weymouth mainline and other stock visiting the depot.

Img: Int3 - The instruments and indicators used to offer and accept train movements between West Junction Box and Branksome Box can be seen fitted on the left hand end of the block instrument shelf above the lever frame.

Img: Int4 - The track diagram above the instrument shelf shows the West end of the yard with access roads to the mainline at Branksome on the left, tracks leading to the maintenence shed on the bottom right and stabling roads to the top right. Note: non-electrified storage sidings at the west end of the yard are not shown on this diagram.
