Ramsbottom Station signal box is a London Midland and Scottish Railway Type 11c design which opened in 1938 fitted with a 40 lever Railway Executive Committee frame, replacing Ramsbottom South, Ramsbottom Station and Ramsbottom North Sidings signal boxes. The box was reduced to a non block post controlling the adjacent level crossing only on 4th June 1972 and it closed on 5th December 1980 along with the Castleton to Rawtenstall single line. Eventually ownership passed to the East Lancashire Railway who reopened it on 17th November 1990
