The Film Archive of Railway Signalling & People

Ferrybridge

This film features Ferrybridge signal box. The NX panel was expanded at the right-hand end following closure of Sudforth Lane and Hensall signal boxes. When filmed in 2024, it was about to be extended again but this time at the left-hand end to take control from Prince of Wales and Cutsyke signal boxes.
Many of the locations seen on the panel were filmed before they were closed so they can also be seen elsewhere on the FARSAP website.

This video is intended for viewing at a maximum screen resolution of 1920 pixels wide by 1080 pixels high. Please be aware that viewing at a larger size may result in a loss of clarity and a ‘grainy’ appearance.
