that whole opening, landscape and yard? i guess? is so cool! as far as i know, we dont have any cool like this here. ive never used it before. maybe im wrong. very QUAINT!
Yes that bit is always hidden away.. it was a good system that worked really well.. but needed lots of people that the railway don’t like anymore lol.. thanks for wasting and commenting it’s always really appreciated.. 👍😎😎👍
Good evening, some single track museum railways in the United Kingdom are still operated with staff or token blocks although all their stations are equipped not only with home signals but also with departure signals (generally "railway semaphore signals" with arms positioned at 45º in the dial lower or in the upper quadrant to communicate to the driver that the way is clear). It is therefore not clear to me the need to have a staff or token block in the presence of starting signals. In other words, the signals that authorize the sending of trains in the opposite direction along the single track section could not be interconnected with each other in order to avoid head-on collisions as well as pile-ups as happens on double-track lines equipped with "Absolute block" ? If I remember correctly, the intermediate railway stations of the lines operated with the "Radio Electronic Token Block" do not have departure signals, except the "Stop Board". Grateful for the attention given to me, I would like to take this opportunity to extend cordial and sincere regards
What a beautiful little signal box. Will have to visit meself one day. Must remember to bring me duster with me. Nice easy little job working a little box like Cromer. How often is it open to the public? Do they allow you to work the box yourself?
Thanks for watching and commenting.. The signal box is sadly not active anymore.. but it is attached to a few points and signals.. so you can use the levers.. as for when it’s open I’m not sure but Mike and Rose are there quite frequent.. if you go to Cromer Station and walk to the end of the platform, if there’s any one there just give them a wave and they will invite you in for a look around.. it’s amazing!! 👍😎👍
What a privilege for you, it looks like an amazing place run by great people! Thanks for sharing :):):)

It was a nice surprise to be able to look around.. 👍😎👍
Didn't realise there was so much engineering that went into it!
