Signalbox interior Berwick

Post by 52D »

Away from my normal topics i have found this pic of the Interior of Berwick cabin and thanks to 52A the signalman is Bob Gibson, I thought the signal fiends on site may like a change from Southern pastures.

Thanks very much 52D. Looks like there was plenty of signalling 'kit' there all right.

That was a 75 lever frame. In front is Berwick Station down platform and the down main, behind the box was the down goods line and the entry to the carriage sidings. The overbridge is behind the photographer almost over the north end of the box. The box closed in December 1961.
