Evening Keith, Don't know if you want to put this on the CRS web pages or not but the lovely signals in the Barnetby area will all be gone after the 24th December as the whole area from Scunthorpe Appleby to Grimsby is re-signaled over the Christmas and New Year period and the whole lot will then come under control from the York ROC . So if anyone from the far west is thinking of going up to North Lincolnshire to see the signals they have not got long. Possession comes on on the 24th December . Ulceby signal box will also be shut on the line into Immingham docks and is due to be demolished. Note the large number of photographers at Barnetby , around 40. You will see more freight in one day at Barnetby the Cornwall sees in six months.
May be of interest so i thought I send them, Cheers Roger Geach
With our news that the Cornish Semaphores are to stay until 2026 we have cause to celebrate and commiserate with our friends up north. My excuse for using these pictures is that Roger is a Cornishman living in exile at Retford and also regular supporter of our web site. Very many thanks to you Roger. These 'up north' pictures are to be an exception on this website.
