It appears that Network Rail has been undertaking some restoration and maintenance of Appleby North signal box with the 1951 LMS Type 11c+ structure looking very smart but it's a shame that the huge modern signal post and beam have been located adjacent to it! There were once a number of boxes in and around Appleby, the town even having two stations that were very close to each other. The sidings seen in this photograph lead to the Appleby Heritage Centre.
