A railroad crossing in Vero Beach, Florida damaged by a E3 tornado that touched down near the tracks. These tracks are used by Brightline High Speed Rail as well as Florida East Coast Railway. Brightline resumed high speed rail service later the same day these photos were taken.
Crosfields Crossing box viewed from the pipe bridge above the crossing.
A LNW type 4 box built early in the last century it has survived in excess of one hundred years but has now signalled it’s last train.
Here the signaller was busying himself tidying the box.
The roof of Bank Quay station can be spotted in the distance but the foreground is dominated by the Crosfields plant after which the box is named, now owned by Lever Brothers I’m lead to believe the ageing and sprawling industrial site produces soap powder but I stand to be corrected.
Times are a changing at Warrington.
Over a distance of just 68 chains (0.85 of a mile) from Arpley Junction to Monks Sidings four signal boxes controlled trains on the Low Level line from Arpley Junction to Ditton East Junction.
Four absolute block boxes, Arpley Junction, Crosfields Crossing, Littons Mill and Monks Siding provided a taste of railways of old. Leaving Arpley Junction the line passes under the WCML and Warrington Bank Quay station before emerging surrounded by industry in the midst of Lever Brothers massive soap powder works. Crosfields Crossing is just 726 yards from Arpley but then only a further 220 yards, an eighth of a mile no less, is Littons Mill, another crossing box, a further 550 yards beyond that is Monks Crossing, again a crossing box and once access to a former British Steel works site.
This short section of track is to be re-signalled and this is actually happening this week. The new signalling will utilise track circuit block between Arpley Junction and Littons Mill using axle counters.
This is a series of photos aimed at recording the signalling of this section of track which has now passed into history.

Hoffman's Crossing is a notable section of boardwalk south of Rice Creek Conservation Area along the Florida Trail outside of Palatka. The boardwalk travels some 1800 feet on two narrow planks over swamp sometimes perilously close below.
I was passing between the neo-Classical pillars of the Royal Scottish Academy on one of my Lockdown daily walks, and paused for a few moments, camera peering between the pillars to look at the pedestrian crossing where Hanover Street meets Princes Street, and shot a few snaps of people coming and going across it.
Toy Sunday: Cute Couple...of Penguins!
I visited one of my fav shops in the UAE, 'Daiso' of Japan and bought this cute little wooden game for AED19, just over £3. The packet describes it as a 'Taw game' A 'taw' is fancy marble used as a shooter. The islands are placed 30cm apart, facing each other. Three chips are placed around each island. Each player flicks the footing chips twice toward the direction they want to go and the penguins then cross.First across to the opponents island is the winner.
