Former Carnforth Station Junction signal box (Furness, 1892)
Former Carnforth Station Junction signal box (Furness, 1892) 
 The superb Carnforth Station Junction signal box which has been disused since 1902 having had a very short working life. It was designed by the architecture practice Austin and Paley of Lancashire who were responsible for many other Furness Railway structures. Quite why the design for this box was so unusual remains a mystery. Buly of York stone it remains on the platform end and is Grade 2 listed. I hope that some better use can be made of the box in the future rather than it just standing empty. Wouldn't it make a great meeting place and café for enthusiasts?
