Scopwick signal box (LNER, 1937)
Scopwick signal box (LNER, 1937) Wreaking of railways from another era is this delightful scene at Scopwick where the B1191 road crosses the Sleaford to Lincoln line. The signal box is a superb example of an LNER box dating from 1937 seen here with its associated manually operated gates with a red oil lamp. It is scenes such as this that typified rural Linconshire's railways, a situation that continued largely unchanged until Network Rail dragged the line into the modern era in 2014. The box has now gone with the gates replaced by standard barriers. Notice our orange Mini parked in the distance with the former station master's house beyond it. Incidentally, the station here was names Scopwick & Timberland and was closed on 07.11.55. Keywords: Scopwick signal box London and North Eastern Railway LNER
