Saxmundham signal box (GE, 1881)
Saxmundham signal box (GE, 1881) Saxmundum signal box is an interesting survivor. It was originally opened by the GER in 1881 but became the hub of the East Suffolk Line's RETB (Radio Electronic Token Block) signalling between Woodbridge and Oulton Broad, including the Sizewell branch. However, that system was discontinued in 2012 with a conventional signalling system using LED signals was introduced along with a much-needed passing loop at Beccles. The box monitors this system and takes calls from the many users of the frequent user-worked crossings the length of the line. Keywords: Saxmundham signal box 1881
