Millom signal box (Furness, 1891)
Millom signal box (Furness, 1891) The 1891 Millom signal box is tricky to photograph at close quarters and is somewhat different now than originally built due to more recent modernisation such as steel steps and UPVC cladding. The box was rebuilt in 1913 following complete destruction by a runaway train that derailed, the cause was put down to wet rails but in all probability was the old favourite 'leaves on the line'! To capture this image over a very high bridge parapet I had to resort to the use of my trusty step ladder. Keywords: Millom signal box Furness 1891
