The distinctive 3 arm signal that once stood on the mainline to Cessnock at Bellbird Junction & showed the settings of the various junctions at this location. The gap between the signal post & the surviving line is the site of the down main which was taken out of use between Caledonia & Bellbird Junction in 1973 with the closure of the section to Cessnock and the Bellbird Junction Signal box. With the closure of the signal box the staff machine was transferred to Caledonia. The Signal post along with all other redundant signal posts on the SMR has since been removed. (1995)
