Croesnewyedd North Fork signal box (GW c.1906) & level crossing A second photograph of the magnificent Croesnewyedd North Fork signal box now complete with the mechanical crossing gates and the superb four-doll-up junction bracket signal. The submissive (the shorter) left hand doll controlled access to the Brymbo steelworks line that closed in 1990. When the steelworks closed the railway route also closed. The taller dolls control the former GWR mainline south of Wrexham towards Shrewsbury. Whilst the box still stands it contains an entrance-exit signalling panel with everything else having been swept away in this scene.
