The Kingsley & Froghall Signal Box Move

29th September 2004

Stored at Froghall Junction for over two years, today the ex-Rushton NSR signal box was woken from its deep slumber and moved to a new location at Kingsley & Froghall Station.

Preparation and loading at Froghall Junction

On the move again after more than two years in storage at the railway

Arriving at Kingsley & Froghall station entrance, but will it fit ?

The base was pre-prepared and built some time ago. Were those all important measurements of Bob's correct ? They'd better be and we'll soon find out !

It fits like a glove to the relief of all those involved and much easier than Consall, the last time this was done. Well done Bob !

And here they all are, smiling faces, 'box in place and a job really well done ! Thanks guys, now when can you start the painting ?

Well, no sooner said than done and it was finished
