Deansgate Junction signalbox
The signalbox is being expanded during a 2 week closure to provide extra signalling facilities required for the coming Metrolink tram system. In anticipation, the junction layout has been altered such that electric trains from Manchester to Altrincham and diesels from Manchester to Chester each have their own single-track route for the next half mile to Navigation Road level crossing.

Navigation Road railway & Metrolink station, Greater Manchester
Opened in 1849 by the Manchester South Junction & Altrincham Railway on the line from Manchester London Road (now Piccadilly) to Altrincham, this station partially converted to Metrolink operation in 1992, which is why the electric overhead wires serve only the one platform that trams serve.
