Train Announcers

Now no longer situated in the panel, the train announcers were for a long time a very important part of the Reading PSB team...

B&H Crossings
Although not Signalmen at Reading Panel, we wouldn't be able to run trains between Aldermaston and Bedwyn without the assistance of the Crossing Keepers at Colthrop and Kintbury. So we have given them their own little space here on "Meet The Staff."

In The Family
We have had at least three father/son teams working in the Reading Panel area during the lifetime of the Signal Box.
