This page is a portal to other pages in RailWest
which describe in more detail particular aspects of the Signalling
of the Lynton
& Barnstaple Railway (L&BR).
This site is not intended to provide detailed information
about the basic principles and components of railway signalling in Great Britain - you should visit The Signal Box for a
wide range of background information. The emphasis here is on particular aspects of L&BR signalling equipment and operation, such as the signals and the
single-line Electric Train Tablet instruments, and historical details about all the individual L&BR signalling installations.
Much of the L&BR-related material available on this site has been derived from research by the author in his capacity as the Corresponding Member on
L&BR signalling for the Signalling Record Society and as a
member of the Lynton
& Barnstaple Railway Trust.
Grateful acknowledgement is given to all those who have helped him along the way to record
at least part of this aspect of L&BR history.
