Finding Pembrey signal box, despite it being a large GW Type 7 structure that contained an 83 lever frame, proved al little tricky. It is actually situated in the town of Burry Port with the village of Pembrey being about two miles to the east! The box still wears its cast plate, Pembrey East signal box. This location is a significant spot as it marks the end of track circuits and power signalling all the way from Paddington, some 203 miles to the east; from here west it's absolute block all the way!
