Richard Hall Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 An operational question that I have been puzzling over. There were a few signalboxes on the WR which by the early 1960s were only manned as required. Stobs and Steele Road for example. From what I can gather these were usually opened for the daily Carlisle-Hawick pick-up goods to shunt the sidings, then closed once it departed. Question: where did the signalman come from? Did he travel with the goods, opening and closing each box as required? Richard 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
