Signal Box Letter Codes

This page should be regarded as “Work in Progress”. The webmaster will welcome additional information for this page.

Code letters are of necessity duplicated but are so arranged that the reuse or duplication of the codes is sufficiently separated geographically to avoid any confusion to drivers and others as to which is the supervising signal box.

Once a code letter or letters had been assigned to a signal box they normally remained in use until the box concerned closed.

The practice of putting signal numbers on plates attached to the signal posts originally came about with the introduction of multiple aspect signalling and was confined to signals within those schemes.

Semaphore signals and odd colour light signals (such as distants) in sempahore signalled areas did not normally carry number plates.

Signal numbers used within power station or other industrial complex sidings are excluded from the lists which have mostly been compiled from signalling notices held by the Society.

"LT" in the Region column indicates London Underground system including predecessor companies.


British Railways Eastern Region

Including: London & North Eastern Railway, British Railways North Eastern Region, Railtrack Anglia, Railtrack London North Eastern, Network Rail Anglia, Network Rail London North Eastern.

Code letters generally related to the name of the controlling signal box with certain codes reserved for automatic signals. With the advent of the Regional Control Centres, letters relate to a section of line or lines within the area controlled.


British Railways London Midland Region

In earlier Power Signal Box installations automatic signals were given the same prefix code as the controlled signals. However, they were usually numbered in a separate separate number series from the controlled signals.


British Railways Scottish Region

Initially the Scottish Region followed the main BR practice of relating the box code to the signal box name. However, in 1975 a departure from this practice appeared with Edinburgh area codes having the second letter generally relevant to a geographic area. This started with Haymarket being allocated EH.


British Railways Southern Region

Including Southern Railway, Railtrack South Zone, Network Rail South Zone.

Colour light signals in the form of multiple aspect signalling was first introduced in 1926 when the area from Holborn to St Pauls and Elephant & Castle was commissioned from Sunday 21 March. Initially single letter codes were used in sequential order in the down direction. First usage of the codes was confined to the diagrams accompanying the signal notices and they do not seem to have been used on the signal posts themselves. Indeed, the narrative in the notices referred to the signals by the more established terms of 'home', starting' and so on.

It seems possible that signal numbers were appearing on the posts by the autumn of 1926 as signal notice 34 refers to signals by their number at Holborn Viaduct and notice 18 (1927) refers to Charing Cross signals by both prefix and number. However, the first notice to explicity state that plates bearing the signal letters and numbers would be affixed to the signal posts was 20 of 1928 with the introduction of colour light signals from London Bridge to Bricklayers Arms Junction.

With the 1932 resignalling of the Brighton line from Coulsdon to the coast a change of policy was evident and the sequential allocation of box letters used two letter codes. The first letter was "C" (central section) followed by the sequential letter allocated in the up direction. "CA" was used for automatic signals.

This seems to have been the first manifestation of a strategic plan which continued well into Southern Region days to roll out colour light signalling as subsequent introduction of such revealed various two and three letter series of codes starting "C", "E" (Eastern section) and "W" (Western section). The series expanded to two letter codes where the 'section letter' appeared second and into three letter codes. In later years the allocation of codes seemed more 'gap filling' than a coherent plan.

As with any strategy abberations would occur. Some boxes received codes relating to the signal box name. However, most of these seem to be been intended to have short lives as the box concerned was abolished at the next stage of resignalling. Some of this was delayed by World War II and the financial constraints that followed.

From 1969 new code letters allocated to Power Signal Boxes generally related to the name of the signal box. By 1973 this practice had been extended to mechanical boxes as well. The new Victoria PSB heralding including automatic signal numbers within those of the the supervising signal box rather than using different code letters.

With the advent of the Regional Control Centres, letters relate to a section of line or lines within the area controlled.


British Railways Western Region

Including: Railtrack Great Western, Network Rail Great Western.

Code letters generally related to the name of the controlling signal box with certain codes reserved for automatic signals.

Automatic signals were coded D (down) and U (up) followed by M (main) or R (relief). Other letters were also used with meanings dependent on the location or area - see table. Numbers were based in milepost mileage thus DM79 would be located between the 79 and 80 mileposts. Where more than one automatic signal existed between the same pair of mileposts they would be numbered DM79A, DM79B etc.
