This Saturday 14th, the old "B" signalbox is comming down at DVR.

The old Diamond Valley "B" signalbox has served us for 30+ years and
this Saturday it will come down.

If you want to see it, about 2pm. Perhaps a bit earlier may be
advisable - B Box may come down quicker than they like, or it may be a
bit stubborn ! 

The old box served us well. 

Regards, 
David Head

For many years I walked the floors (and crawled underneath them) either
working the frame or working on it. Fond memories.
If it was anything like the old "A" box, it won't take long to fall.. Do
make sure you get good pics :)
