Another view of Kidwelly signal box, this time from the side and back showing clearly the full barriers. The use of this type of barrier, even though favoured by Network Rail, is a little bit of surprise here as the road they protect goes nowhere apart from to a few houses down by the Gwendraeth estuary. Kidwelly's box is the intermediate block post between Pembrey to the east and Ferryside to the west and must be a lovely, quiet place to work.
