Please note the box is closed during October and November. The Open Day on the 27th September 2025 is an opportunity to celebrate the bicentenary of the birth of the railway system as we know it, when the first journey took place from Stockton to Darlington on the opening of the S&D railway.
The box is located on the Brighton Road (postcode RH10 6AE) at the south end of Crawley High Street alongside the level crossing.
The signal box dates from around the 1870s and was closed by British Railways in 1986.
The Society took over in 1992 and after much hard work to restore the box, some of it unpleasant, we started opening it to the public.
Members of the Society will be on hand to explain the importance of the box in the signalling systems of the steam age and all are welcome to come and pull a lever.
Entry is free but donations are welcome.
