	Signal Boxes of the Cheshire Lines Committee
		Although the Cheshire Lines Committee was jointly owned by the Great Central, the Great Northern and Midland Railways, it operated as an independent concern.
		Until the CLC opened its own signal works at Warrington in 1881, boxes were built and equipped by contractors, but the company was quick to introduced its own designs.
		The Cheshire Lines Committee remained an entity after the 1923 grouping by virtue of becoming a joint LMS and LNE operation.

		The plan of the Somerset and Dorset Joint Railway is simple in the extreme, the lines appearing on a railway map in the form of the letter Y. The main line runs north-west to Evercreech Junction from Broadstone Junction (Dorset), on the Southern Railway's line from Bournemouth West and Poole to Wimborne.

	Disused Railways : Midland and Great Northern Joint Railway

		The Cheshire Lines Committee (CLC) was a joint railway system and the second largest in England after the Midland and Great Northern.
		Furthermore, the fact that he was released to the Army Reserve after enlistment appears to be further evidence that his civilian work was considered to be essential to the war effort and that it served King and Country to a greater degree than putting him in uniform.
		It can be assumed that he returned to The Cheshire Lines Committee to resume his work with the railway as a platelayer.
