Here is our latest bulletin sent to all who follow our projects.

This issue specialises in our new feature – the remains of the McKenzie and Holland signal box, supplied to the North Staffordshire Railway Co. for the opening of Rolleston station in 1894.

An interpretation panel gives details of this once mechanical signal cabin demolished in 1952. 

Mechanical signal boxes still give service on the ex NSR Derby-Stoke line.
