| Description |
Brindle Heath Junction signal box was located between the Up Main and Down Connecting lines, and was a Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway Standard design which opened in 1899. The original Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway Tappet frame was replaced in 1952 by a 100 lever London Midland Region Standard frame which was reduced to 60 levers circa.1980. The box was closed on 10th May 1987 when the Connecting line to Agecroft Junction was closed and the line between Windsor Bridge and Walkden signal boxes was converted from absolute block to track circuit block. The redundant box immediately became a magnet for vandals who set it on fire by the end of the month The picture is taken from an embankment which formerly carried the Fast lines which passed over the Slow lines at Brindle Heath Junction. The Main lines in the picture were formerly the Slow lines until 21st November 1965 when the Fast lines were taken out of use between Crow Nest Junction and Pendleton Broad Street signal boxes |
