A railway modeller's delight! The superb and unmolested Great Central Signal box at Goxhill is seen. It was opened in 1910 and was a Type 4 design with a thirty-six lever frame that has now become a fringe box following the resignalling of the 'mainline'. At the time of writing, the gates are still manually operated maintianing the air of Victorian atmosphere of this railway backwater. Only the Portaloo and bike date the scene to the early 1980s!
