Altrincham North signalbox
Controlled the junction and level crossing at the north end of Altrincham station. Eventually the delays to road traffic with up to 12 trains per hour became intolerable and the level crossing was replaced by the current bridge. The signalbox disappeared as part of the work to downgrade the Manchester-Altrincham route to a tram service.
