The platform board at Lydda Junction

Beneath the gable of a platform roof hangs a long board lettered Lydda Junction in English, Hebrew and Arabic; below, in three languages, it lists trains for Jerusalem, Haifa, Kantara and Jaffa departing from platforms one to four. The roof posts recede along the dark platform. Lydda, today Lod, was the junction of the line from Jaffa to Jerusalem with the main line from El Kantara on the Suez Canal to Haifa.
