Laurencekirk signal box (Caledonian, 1910) 
 Laurencekirk signal box is a Caledonian Railway building dating from 1910 and contains a forty-lever frame. It stands around two hundred and fifty yards north of the station, on the east side of the line, and controls five semaphore arms and a number of disc shunt signals including three in a row on the down siding that unfortunately I did not capture during my visit. The box has had a fair amount of work done to 'improve' it including the very bright replacement roof! It is interesting to note the older and more traditional signal post compared with the more recent example installed by Network rail in recent years.
