"Betton Grange" pulls away from a stop at Swithland Sidings on the Great Central Railway during a Timeline Events photo charter.
Locomotive: New-build Great Western Railway 6800 Grange Class 4-6-0 6880 "Betton Grange".
Location: Swithland Sidings, near Quorn, Great Central Railway, Leicestershire, UK.
Volunteer signaller Mandy at the levers in the signal box at Arley station during Severn Valley Railway’s Step Back to the 1940s event on 8 June 2025.
The current signal box was reconstructed from 1974 to 1976 approximately on the site of the original signal box. The frame, which has 30 levers, is originally from Kidderminster Station.
The signal box at Petersfield, right on the level crossing. Grade II listed and beautiful.

Having crossed over the Illinois River and passed the one-time crew change point at Chillicothe without stopping, a Willow Springs, IL to North Bay, California trailer train rolls through the "S" curve at the west end of Chillicothe Yard and past the signal bridges at the West Chillicothe control point.
Just a few hundred yards west of this point, the five engines will begin to pull their train of trailers for the San Francisco-Oakland area up the 1.1% grade up Edelstein hill and out of the Illinois River valley.
This train was symboled as the Z WSPNBY9 21L.
The antenna in Signal Hill is decorated as a towering Christmas. It becomes a local landmark as it is visible across much of south land.
So I took this picture during the evening rush hour on Friday after the TTC had signal trouble yet again. Even though they kept repeating that there was no service, the trains weren't going anywhere and shuttle buses were upstairs, people still kept coming downstairs and waiting inside the trains. To fix this, they turned off all the lights and closed the doors on both trains.
Anyways, the TTC is in need of some serious funding because it's only going to get worse before it gets better.
Dash9 NS 9919 & GP40-2L(W) CN 9639 lead CN 324 towards the de Courcelle crossing in the St-Henri neighbourhood of Montreal on a sunny morning. In the background is the Turcot interchange and at right is a quite new signal gantry.
UP dispatcher 12 has lined an eastward move following a manifest train on the former Chicago & North Western main line at Nachusa, IL. These searchlight signals date to the early Fifties CTC project on this busy part of the "Overland Route", but are destined for replacement within the next year.
Red over red over lunar white indicates "Restricting" and requires the following train to proceed prepared to stop within half the range of vision.
This is one of the first photos I took on a test run of my new Pentax K3 Mark III camera after my old camera died. Conditions were fairly difficult with deep cloud shadows looking into a bright sky, so this is a three shot HDR. The camera will take some getting used to, with an entirely different layout of buttons, dials, and menus, but it will do everything but shovel snow and make coffee.
The Griswold Signal Company manufactured these types of "rotating banner" signals, beginning in 1927. When the crossing signal was activated, a rotating stop sign would turn to face the motorist/pedestrian/bicyclist. These signals were common in Minnesota, but could be found elsewhere. This one greets visitors at the Minnesota Transportation Museum.
According to Wikipedia, "As of November 2016, there are only half a dozen known Griswold signals still in service along active rail, all in Minnesota, none with rotating stop sign signals. The last pair with an operating banner protected 22nd Ave NE in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The Griswolds in Tacoma, Washington and San Jose, California were both removed circa 2010.".
Ex-LMSR 'Jubilee' No. 45690 'Leander' eases into Shrewsbury station with 5Z55 Shrewsbury Sutton Bridge Junction to Coton Hill Sidings on 28th March 2015. This is part of a positioning move to re-unite 'Leander' with the stock West Coast's 'Salopian Express' which was being serviced at Coton Hill. 'Leander had been watered at Abbey Foregate, and then worked around the triangle to reach Coton Hill. In the background is Shrewsbury Abbey which was founded in 1083. Obscured by 'Leander' exhaust is Shrewsbury's Severn Bridge Junction signal box, reported now to be the world's largest surviving mechanical signal box.

Out in the country on the edge of a small town, this little one lane bridge allows trains to run underneath. If you're on one side, you cannot see the cars on the other side so the signal is very necessary.
3 of of the Apache Railway's roster sits outside the company's shop in Snowflake, Arizona, awaiting a run to Holbrook the following day.
The Cove signal bridge at Milepost 116 was a favorite of mine, and in April of 1994 Conrail had an outlawed SPL101 on the siding behind a freshly-painted GE C32-8.
The farm equipment was destined for somewhere in Europe via the Port of Baltimore, which meant this train would have slipped down Amtrak's Northeast Corridor in the middle of the night.
From what I recall, this signal box, which has since been demolished, was in West Hartlepool; to the east of Hartlepool station.
The photograph would be taken from the point of the level crossing at the end of Church Street and the start of Mainsforth Terrace.
The lines curving round to the right are the current lines running down the Durham coast to Seaton Carew and beyond.
West Hartlepool locomotive depot was about half a mile further down this line, towards Seaton Carew. The area of the depot, which was to the north of the road bridge on the A178 and the start of Coronation Drive, still remains undeveloped.
D9659 stopped at the Weybourne signal alongside D6732 which was on shed that day during an EMRPS photo charter
Whitby signal box, photographed on 3 August 1981.
From wikipedia:
"In 1854, the Y&NM helped form the North Eastern Railway, who later added two more platforms (also replaced by the supermarket) to help deal with traffic from the other branch lines that served Whitby; the Esk Valley Line finally opened throughout to a junction at Grosmont in 1863. The coast line from Loftus opened in 1883 and from Scarborough in 1885. Block signalling replaced the time interval system in 1876 and brought Whitby an unusual three storey signal box (to make it high enough to see over the adjacent goods shed)."
