Copyright Craig Munday. Largin, a super place to work. The Signalman would park at Bird Cage access point the site which was on the small road up right just before Trago Mills. This was between the two single line viaducts. Largin and St Pinnock. You called the box from the phone at track level for a running report. It took about 4 mins to walk along the viaduct to the box. This was quite a feat with a keen wind blowing. The pictures shows a down freight with a class 47 in charge.

Copyright John Cornelius. Goods traffic was withdrawn on 5th August 1967 and on 3rd May 1971 the station became unstaffed. From 1974 to 1984 the buildings seen to the right here housed the Dawlish Warren Railway Museum with its model railway. This building too burnt down in 2003, but in 2007 a new residential building was built on the site which is outwardly the same design as the former Dawlish Warren signal box. This had been located at the north end of the 'Down' platform until made redundant on 14 November 1986 by the West of England resignalling; it was demolished in May 1990. Courtesy Wikipedia
