Montrose North signal box has not had its roof replaced

despite it undergoing significant improvement when it was brought back into use in 2010. The 1881 former North British box had been out of use for a number years with Montrose South controlling signalling around the station including the single track section over the Esk viaduct as far as Usan using tokenless block regulations. After significant improvements to the track and signalling, both the South box and Usan were closed and unceremoniously demolished with control moving to the resurrected north box.
