Liverpool Street signal box, Railway signal control building at Liverpool Street Station, City of London, United Kingdom

The signal box features yellow stock brick construction with a weatherboarded timber upper story and windows on each side at Liverpool Street Station.

The signal box started operations in 1875 as part of the Metropolitan Railway extension from Moorgate, managing train movements with a 40-lever control system.

The structure represents the evolution of London's transportation infrastructure, marking the development of underground railway control systems in the Victorian era.

The building continues functioning as an Interlocking Machine Room, controlled from Baker Street since 2001, ensuring safe train movements through the station.

The signal box earned Grade II listed status in 2013, becoming the third such structure on the London Underground network to receive this protection.
