Freightliner Class 70 No 70003 passes Banetby East Junction Signal Box (Great Central Railway 1914) and approaches the Station with the return working of a test train to Immingham on 20th April 2010
This signal tower is located at the C&O Railway Heritage Center in Clifton Forge, Virginia. According to information at the museum, the rectangular two-story design was adopted around 1900. This particular tower is a replica of an earlier one, as noted in the museum's entry on the Virginia Tourism Corporation website.
BLE 902, 901 and 905 are seen pulling out the north end of XB as they double up a loaded Coke train that was dropped off by the Union earlier that morning from Clairton. XB is hard to shoot unless you know a train is there. The south end signals are deep in the URR yard surrounded by a rock cut and a steep drop off oh and USS security are dicks, coming from a former URR employee, and the north end signal is a little bit of a hike down some ATV trails and at this time the BLE was almost always leaving well after dark returning back north. Too much longer on this night and I would have not even tried it.

CP 484 splits the older signals along with their Safetrans replacements along York Road in Bensenville. With the new Irving Park flyover nearly complete, the new-style signals will be swung around and activated soon. A freshly-repainted Union Pacific C40-8W was leading the way along Fortress O'Hare.

Clear signal; ready for the highball, at Barber Station in the North Carolina Transportation Museum at Spencer, North Carolina, May 3, 2021.
I had a handful of “bucket list” shots to get while in Winnipeg, so I was more than pleased to get a GMD-1 in full sun, and I would’ve been fine with quitting there. However, Chris wasn’t lined up to work until early evening or later, so we headed over to the Sprague Sub as we knew A437 was due before long. After not one, nor two, but THREE misfires, I knew I had to capitalize with the wooden elevator at Dufresne. I simply could not leave the prairies without bagging it, so that was that, and before long we found ourselves waiting in Dufresne. I had just enough time to fire off a couple test exposures, when we heard the conductor call the east end of Dufresne. A sign of the times with AC leader 2989 straight out of Thunder Bay with an entire train of grain empties, minus the two open hoppers on the head end. Sad but unique, as this is the only regularly scheduled westbound for CN out of Thunder Bay. There are a good number of coal and grain extras, but nothing set in stone, as they run only as needed.
With the CN and NS dispatcher giving approval, this westbound Norfolk Southern manifest begins to pull across the diamond behind a pair of C44-9Ws.

GBRf class 66 66756 'Royal Corps of Signals' heads north at Oldends Lane bridge in Stonehouse, Gloucestershire with the 6M42 Avonmouth Hansons Sidings to Penyffordd cement tanks
Denton Village Crossing is one of the many and varied crossings on the former NER route between Carlisle and Newcastle. This one – pictured looking east in February 2009 - had a crossing keeper with manually controlled gates and a ground frame with semaphore stop and distant signals.
The signals were normally in the off position with gates closed to road traffic but I was fortunate to capture them at danger while a car crosses. The signals were removed just a few months after this picture was taken as part of the area’s re-signalling project, based on the new signalling centre at Low Row, however the gate keeper was retained.
The signal post on the left (for the up direction) is slightly unusual (though similar to one at Low Row). It’s constructed of a welded steel frame stem surmounted by a tubular post, surprisingly - in this exposed location - not in need of any “guy ropes”. To the right of the image, the down signal looks like it has an original NER square wooden post but that is tethered by three stabilising wires.
Built in 1904 Billingham signal box towers over Station Road, and unlike many of the boxes on the Durham Coast route is still in existence and in use.
The area still uses semaphore signalling and there is also a standard pattern NER cast iron footbridge to add to the railway scene. The only thing missing is the station itself which was moved to a new site further east in 1966. The original station platforms would have been in front of the bridge.
156472 winds it's way north with the 2W22 Middlesborough to Metro Centre service on Sunday 8th January 2017.
The impressive signal box at Canterbury West that spans the running lines is the feature of the station. Competing for attention on 14th March 2009 is the National Railway Museum's 'Britannia' No. 70013 'Oliver Cromwell' and 'Electrostar' Class 375 EMU No. 375624. The former had just arrived with The Railway Touring Company's 'Golden Arrow' charter that had earlier visited the Folkestone Harbour branch, and now forms 1Z84, 1309 ex-Folkestone Harbour. Meanwhile the Class 375 is about to call at the station with a service to London. Copyright Photograph John Whitehouse - all rights reserved
It is the first Christmas illuminations this year. Here is crowded every year. I can watch this slowly now.
In Tokyo, I still wear a T-shirt every day because it is hot.
On October 5, 2013 in Marunouchi.

今年最初のクリスマスイルミネーションです。 ここは毎年混雑するので、ゆっくり見るには今がいいかもしれません。
東京はまだ暑いのでぼくは毎日Tシャツを着ています。

Not only the racecourse beautifully restored signal box and a tree silhouette but a glimpse of the distant Malvern hills peeping over the hedge.
I have no idea why this camera went into stupid mode and found an ISO of 51200 when 160 would have worked nicely!

Seemingly oblivious to the worn out concrete pavement and faded crosswalk markings, this well-dressed man on his way to the office passes underneath one of Chicago's L train stations clearly showing its age.

Here's a sign of changing times. We spent 2 weeks in Scotland, and I can count the number of railway photographs taken on the fingers of 2 hands. Stopping at Blair Atholl on our way to Inverness to drive the "NorthCoast500" route I was surprised to see Blair Atholl signal box still open and operative. For some reason I had thought that the Highland main line had all been re-signalled some years ago. I was wrong.
Blair Atholl box was a Highand Railway design dating from about 1890.
An unidentified Q6 wheezes past the wonderful gantry by Tyne Dock shed with a long train of hoppers. Only a few upper quadrant signals have replaced the original North Eastern lower quadrant examples.
While this is a "golden" shot of an old MILW signal, I doubt the signal department forces will think this is so golden if they have to work on it on account of the infestation of wasps under the shield.
Approach signal to Watertown on the Madison line.
that someone actually signaled their lane change.
I-84 at night f/22. I pulled over trying to get the moon rise but from this overpass it wasn't visible. So, even without my tripod, I decided to try some long exposures...
Happy Nokeh Wednesday!

The signal box at Welshpool - from the train, 30/6/83. The netting and posts are possibly ex- tablet catchers?
0-4-4T Class H and its vintage coaches are held by the signal jst outside Horsted Keynes Station, waiting for clearance to proceed.
shot last week, its starting to look somewhat like spring here in St. John's. Although were underneath a blanket of snow.. I am counting down the days until that spring sunny weather :)

NS 9181 leads this auto train south on the Union Pacific Chester Sub. as it ducks under this signal bridge in McClure, Illinois. The second motor is NS 7245, a fairly fresh ACU rebuild.
Signal box (1910) at Eisenbahnmuseum Bochum-Dahlhausen in Bochum, Germany.
This signal box was originally installed at the Köln-Mühlheim goods yard in 1910. It remained in use at this location until the 1970s and was transfered and restored at the museum at Dahlhausen. This included the re-construction of the corrugated iron cladding which had been destroyed in a fire and the rebuilding of the control apparatus.
Taken during a Timeline events photo shoot, shows a prototypical Great Western signal box inside the steam museum in Swindon.
The only daylight freight on this particular route on this particular day is seen passing Brough East signalbox .
The 6D72 1132 Hull Dairycoates - Rylstone Tilcon is worked by 66715 complete with wreath the day after Remembrance Sunday .The weather has been pretty poor in the last week of semaphore signalling and signalbox operation on this route , hopefully the next few days will improve.
