View southeast from the 'back' (coast side) of the box to Immingham Reception Sidings ahead, the scrap metal top left is at the old NCB Terminal.<br>[&copy; Nick Jones 2023]

In the other direction, (TRACKmaps 2 p31B 2020) the NCB Terminal branch is right and the Shunt Spur straight ahead, Lindsey Refinery is upper left.<br>[&copy; Nick Jones 2023]

'Great Coates' sounds as though it should have an exclamation mark; Grimsby Docks and Immingham are to the left, West Marsh Jn is to the right.<br>[&copy; Nick Jones 2023]

From the box, actually looking northeast; ahead the track left is to Immingham and right to Grimsby Docks, the overbridge is the A180.<br>[&copy; Nick Jones 2023]
