Statement of Significance

The Moreland signal box is of regional significance as part of the important Upfield railway line for its Winters double line block instruments which are now rare in signal boxes of the period outside the Upfield Like, and because of its association with the local industry. Thomas War and Company's Free stores, the Moreland Timber Company and the Brunswick Pllaster Mills owned sidings in the Moreland Station complex which were served from this signal box. The signal masts are typical of many installations (Hubbard 1991) .
