Barry signal box, August 2013. A large building which housed 77 lever frames in 1957, but has just 4 active semaphore levers in use today. It would have been a very busy signal box in its day, with coal traffic to Barry Docks and passenger services to Barry Island. Sadly, after 116 years of service, it is due to be decommissioned in January 2014. Aberthaw signal box was closed down in early 2013, and other signal boxes in South Wales including Ystrad Mynach and Bargoed on the Rhymney line, are scheduled to be decommissioned in September 2013. This is the result of modernisation by Network Rail, where all signalling will soon be controlled from Cardiff.
Older 1980's AWA Wigwag signals commonly installed for fire and ambulance stations - here for an ambulance station in Dobson Street to access Burwood Highway
These signals are slowly being replaced with standard traffic signals which were used since the 1990's. The older ones however survive at this location.

Chacewater signal box on the Down (towards Penzance) platform at Chacewater railway station
Chacewater signal box was a Great Western Railway Company type 7d design fitted with a 35 lever Great Western Railway Company Vertical Tappet 3-bar frame that was ordered in March 1912. It was inspected on 17th November 1914 and replaced an earlier signal box. A 2 lever miniature frame was installed at some time to operate the detonator placers and a British Railways Western Region key control instrument was commissioned on 10th March 1957 controlling 100 signal (up intermediate block). The signal box closed on 12th June 1977 when the absolute block section was extended to between Truro and Drump Lane signal boxes

The signals are almost all made by US&S. Portland's light rail uses an interesting route signaling system with these sorts of automatic block signals along open rail. Where the trains run on the streets neat pre-empt signals that use vertical bar for go and horizontal bar for stop are used, to distinguish them from vehicular signals.

The soon to be removed crossover at Shippea Hill and the new “modular signalling” in situ and ready for use with the signal head bagged over.
Shippea Hill signal box is a fringe box to Cambridge. A simple crossing box working track circuit block to Cambridge and absolute block to Lackenheath. Here the gates are seen with the box in the background.
At Abergynolwyn station, on the Talyllyn railway. As we discovered today, the world's first preserved railway, and now part of the latest UK unesco world heritage site - illustrating the heritage of the slate industry.
We also discovered that those green and yellow cases are to store the tokens - as a single line with passing places, this is how they make sure the trains don't occupy the same part of the track at the same time.

Thus, this logo, the final concept. Those are the international signal flags for S-E-A-S in the background of the compass, by the way. Very happy with how it turned out.

Austrac's 4814 leads a T and three EL class locos from the Cowra line to the Main South at Demondrille back in 2002. The signal box, then used whenever there was a branch line movement, has since been made redundant with new signalling.
This mighty oak has, since the early 1800s, been called the Indian Signal Tree. It is shaped like a candelabrum---or a three-pointed fork. The puzzle is, was it shaped by accident, by an act of God or by a human hand? This magnificent tree is more than 100 feet high and has an average spread of 75 feet. It is believed to be 250 to 300 years old. Most experts believe the oak was manipulated into this shape when it was small, by Indians who were known to do this to mark their trails.
The train I was on was departing from Shrewsbury Station to return to Birmingham New Street.
Shrewsbury Station is operated by Arriva Trains Wales. It has trains to Birmingham, Wales, and now some to London.
It first opened in 1848.
