Chester No. 4 signal box (LNW, 1904)
Chester No. 4 signal box (LNW, 1904) 
 In the fine evening sunshine, Chester No. 4 signal box is seen resplendent with its British Railways (Midland) enamel acting as a giant running-in sign for passengers. It was located just east of the station with the A56 Hoole Road bridge in the background. The box was another large LNWR structure with this example dating from 1904. It contained a large one hundred and seventy-six lever frame and was double manned. I suspect that BR was particularly pleased when it, and all the other mechanical boxes in the Chester area, was closed in early May 1984 with control moving to the PSB located on a piece of land to the east of the station near the No. 2 box.
