The Sidings
Lowdham, England NG14 7DU
Lowdham Signal box closed recently (October 2016) when the Nottingham to Lincoln line was fully resignalled. Its original location had no public access. The signal box has moved to a new home on the old cattle dock, just 100 yards from its original location. The interior is as it was for the majority of its life: polished wooden block instruments, and a gate wheel that we have recently acquired, with the interlocking restored to its original condition. Externally, it is in the British Railways colour scheme of green and cream. The signal box is open to the public on selected open days, depending on volunteers.
