Close up of image 'lnwrkj178' showing Kenilworth Junction Signal Cabin with the lever frame clearly positioned to the right over looking the curve to Berkswell. Most LNWR designed signal boxes had the steps leading directly up to the door whereas the Midland Railway had a landing outside the door with the steps off-set. This meant that a Midland Railway signalman couldn't trip and fall down stairs in the dark. One can only assume that the Midland Railway were more safety conscious than the LNWR.
