Acton Canal Wharf signal box (Mid, 1894)
Acton Canal Wharf signal box (Mid, 1894) It is hard to believe that the signal box seen here.... https://www.ontheupfast.com/p/21936chg/27444280004/acton-canal-wharf-signal-box-tq211829 is one and the same! The old Midland box, which dated from 1894, is completely encased within the new and much larger UPVC creation. However, I should not moan as it is pretty astounding that this small section of absolute block working that is controlled by three mechanical boxes is still in operation deep within London! It is seen here from the window of the Verney Venturer charter that had reversed just south of the box and that is seen crossing over a little further ahead.
