Signal box opened when the line from Taree to Wauchope was brought into use. It was closed as an
Electric Staff station on 25 July 1917 and reopened on 14 October 1922 with the loop points being
operated by ground frames, and the Loop Home signals and all Starting signals cross boarded.
In 1933 the Starting signals, then out of use, were removed, only to be reinstated in 1934 along with
the Loop Home signals and direct operation of the Loop points.
The replacement of the interlocking machine in 1967 used the machine displaced from Dalhousie
Creek.
When the points and signals were converted to power operation in July 1982 the mechanical
interlocking machine was replaced by a DML OCS panel. With the transfer of control to Broadmeadow
CTC the signal box was closed and the panel redesignated an emergency panel and relocated to the
Traffic Room in the Relay building.
