| Arch Four , Area 74 Arch Four, Overhead |
This is one of the original metal header signs that were attached to the front of locomotives working the prestigious Golden Arrow train.
It consists of a dark green metal disc with a black border painted with the words "GOLDEN ARROW" in gold, with the two letter "O"'s pierced by a diagonal golden dart that points from top left to bottom right.
The arrowhead and flights extend past the edges of the disk, and are backed by a metal reinforcing bar.
