NT32 stopped at Mindaribba 17/12/2024. Point of interest at this platform is that the angled section closest to the train is an extension of the original which ended at the short horizontal white fence. This was added when the loop was extended and the mainline was straightrailed around 2004/5.

Signal box opened when Mindaribba was brought into use as an Electric Staff and crossing station to
divide the section Telarah to Paterson. With pre CTC phase brought into use in March 1982, the interlocking machine was replaced by an One Control Switch (OCS) type relay interlocking panel. The panel was initially located in the signal box, but when remote control (CTC) was transferred to Broadmeadow the panel was designated an emergency panel and transferred to the Traffic Room in the Relay building.

A standard Type K signal box constructed on the end of the platform as a result of which there was no nameboard applied to the building. The tripod shaped device in the front of the signal box was the wash basin stand. RT Taaffe
