Summary[edit]

Description

Monks Siding signal box located by the Down Goods line alongside Beaufort Street level crossing in Warrington. Saturday 13th June 1987

Monks Siding signal box is a London and North Western Railway type 3 design which opened in 1875 fitted with a 20 lever London and North Western Railway Tumbler frame. The steps were originally located at the opposite end of the signal box but they were moved to Liverpool end of the signal box to allow the level crossing to be widened, possibly in conjunction with the level crossing gates being replaced by full width lifting barriers on 20th December 1976. The signal box was rewindowed with uPVC windows sometime by June 2003. Monks Siding signal box was originally located on a passenger line, but the line between Ditton Junction No1 and Arpley Junction signal boxes was reduced to goods only status sometime between June 1969 and November 1970, although absolute block working was retained

The signal box carries two London Midland and Scottish Railway post-1935 design nameboards.
