As you may or may not know I work at various locations on the Settle to Carlisle railway, last night I was again working at Appleby North signal box and I thought it would be a good opportunity to take a photograph or two.I had of course to be careful that taking these photographs did not interfere with my ‘work’ which makes it a bit harder to concentrate on the photography

Signals cleared for the last Southbound passenger of the day -

Appleby North box at night -

Notes – It’s called Appleby North because at one time there were a number of signal boxes dotted around Appleby.
All photographs were taken at a time when there would be no compromise to the safe passage of trains or personnel.
