Elgin West signal box sits adjacent to The Wards level

crossing that it controls. The box is of rather mixed heritage and not that old so when resignalling arrives in the next few years I suspect that it will succumb. It has only been at this location since 1951 with the brick base built at this time. The top dates from 1901 and is of Highland heritage being secondhand from Mosstowie (closed in 1948) some five miles west of Elgin.
