Wooden notice, South Eastern & Chatham Railway - notice to cabdrivers

Notice, wooden, South Eastern & Chatham Railway, "Notice to cabdrivers. Any cabman skylarking or otherwise misconducting himself while on the Managing Committee's premises or Smoking whilst his Cab is standing alongside the Platform will be required to leave the Station immediately, By Order".

The railways were bound by rules and these helped keep workers and passengers safe. Signs declared what was allowed, and what would happen if rules were broken. Some of the warning notices are very long and required a good level of literacy to read and apply.
