Blackford signal box (LMS, 1933)
Blackford signal box (LMS, 1933) I really like the design of the LMS' Scottish division boxes with their sprocketed hipped roofs and central observation windows, they appear both architecturally balanced, attractive and sturdy. Unlike Longforgan box https://www.ontheupfast.com/p/21936chg/28963896804/longforgan-signal-box-lms seen earlier in the day, Blackford retains its frame room windows that appear to be the original frames. The box is at a remote location at the level crossing to the north of the village where the old A9 main road used to cross the line now replaced by a dual carriageway that bypasses the village opened in 1978.
