Description

Severn Bridge Junction signal box's Up & Down Platform line starting signals at the south end of platform 4 at Shrewsbury station. Monday 27th August 2007

Severn Bridge Junction signal box is located within the triangle of lines at the south end of Shrewsbury station, and is a London and North Western Railway type 4 design which was opened in June 1903 for the London and North Western and and Great Western Joint railway fitted with a 180 lever London and North Western Railway Tumbler frame, replacing an earlier box. The original bar and stud locking was replaced by Great Western Railway 5-bar tappet locking in 1952. And the signal box was listed as a Grade II listed building on 23rd January 1991
