Kings Dyke signal box (GE, 1889)
Kings Dyke signal box (GE, 1889) I have a picture of Kings Dyke signal box taken in the 1980s, then it was very different being devoid of the ghastly upvc windows and cladding. It also did not have the toilet extension added at the western end. Today, the GER Dutton Type seven box controls two level crossings but no semaphores and it still retains its wooden nameboard. It is interesting to note that the name Kings Dyke is written with no apostrophe but on maps and locally it is written King's Dyke, once again like the next station Whittlesey, the railways have gone for their own spelling.
