Lugton signal box was constructed by the LMS in 1929. It has been extensively modified such as the inevitable UPVC windows. Lugton was once at the site of of a complex junction of a number of lines and a station just beyond the signal box as seen in this picture. It is now an intermediate block post that controls the one remaining junction with the mothballed spur to the MOD ordnance establishment at Giffen. This line has been out of use for many years but studying Google Earth finds that the track is still in situ but extremely overgrown.
