Notes / History Mitcham Tramstop construction site. The picture shows the doubling of the track into a passing loop through the tramstop. The building to the right of the bridge is the old Mitcham Railway Station. The signal post on the left indicates the route to the driver, ie. he will go left at the points into the tramstop. Just beyond the signal is a 25 KPH speed restriction sign.
