Wrawby Junction
Wrawby Junction
The signal box at Wrawby Junction, where lines from Lincoln, Retford and Scunthorpe converge on the Network Rail routes to Immingham and Cleethorpes. The signal box built in around 1916 also controlled the entrance to the once-busy railway sidings and locomotive depot at Barnetby. It originally had 137 manual levers linked to a complex array of semaphore signals which were all worked by a single operator.
