Double manned @ Chapple North - a photo on Flickriver

            A view inside the Signal box at Chapple North during last years Diesel Gala at the EARM at Chapple and Wakes Colne.
The box is ex Mistley with  a 27 lever McKenzie and Holland frame.
In the 1950s and early 1960s because of the heavy Summer dated traffic at many boxes the late turn Signalman would come on duty at 10 00am on Saturdays to answer the telephones and keep the train register book up to date until 1400.I remember at Blackrod on summer Saturdays the constant stream of trains meant the distant signal was never cleared.
