My understanding is the the locking room of Bridgnorth signal box originally had 3 windows along the front wall thus making it approximately 50% longer than presently.Boldford (talk) 21:03, 8 February 2015 (UTC)

Regarding the origin of the frame, it seems there are conflicting sources. Marshall seems to claim it was mainly from Arley, but most other sources (and local knowledge) state it was from Windmill End. Looking at the information available, Arley's frame was always a McKenzie and Holland design, in contrast to the GWRGreat Western Railway/WR frame in Bridgnorth (and Windmill End). Therefore, Marshall seems to be wrong to claim that the frame was "mainly" from Arley, although parts of the interlocking would have been compatible. --Danny252 (talk) 18:15, 14 December 2015 (UTC)
