Crediton Signalbox, at Crediton Railway Station , the junction of the Tarka and Dartmoor lines in Devon, UK
In 1984 the mechanical lever frame in Crediton signal box was replaced by an electric panel. There is now no signal box beyond Crediton on either line, the two single tracks are controlled by tokens which ensures there is just one train on the line at any time. Train drivers going to Barnstaple exchange their token in the No Signalman Token Remote (NSTR) equipment at Eggesford but physical tokens are still (2024) exchanged by the signalman for the single line section to OkehamptonCrediton railway station is a railway station which opened in 1851, serving the town of Crediton in Devon, England.

Crediton Station is the junction of the Tarka and Dartmoor lines, though the two lines run parallel until Coleford Junction (where the junction of the Barnstaple and Okehampton lines used to be) at Penstone near Coleford (west of Yeoford).
