Levers, track diagram & block instruments, Newhaven Harbour signal box A general view looking down the length of the 1886 Newhaven Harbour signal box. It shows the levers, block instruments and the track diagram. The signalmen, who afforded us this rare visit, was quite sanguine about its closure and was looking forward to his retirement. Notice the number of levers painted white indicating them being out of use. Andy and I were pleased to hear that the box was not being demolished but had a future as a mess-room of some kind when it become part of the Newhaven Harbour complex. I hope that it is appropriately maintained and looked after. Keywords: Levers track diagram block instruments Newhaven Harbour signal box
