Cricklewood Junction signal box (LMS, c1929)
Cricklewood Junction signal box (LMS, c1929) In the beautiful afternoon winter sun, Cricklewood signal box is seen just north of the station. It was a one hundred and twenty lever LMS box dating from circa 1929. As well as controlling the Midland Mainline it also permitted access to and from the busy depot. Finally, it had control over the junction to the Dudding Hill and West London line along with many sidings. Notice the superb Midland wooden signal in the foreground and the substantial Express dairy behind the box. This has now been demolished and is home to a housing estate with the access road aptly called Dairyman Close leading into it off Claremont Road. Keywords: Cricklewood Junction signal box
