#Station Distance Bearing Height Width Remarks
#NB the height and width were missed out by the typist
#NB the stations given in the book appear to be how to get to the next station
#(using 51-52 as a guide) I suppose the numbers with the station could be read
#from the next station back but this possibility seems remote. The first
#column is the original stations.
