  1. Some more recent progress at Maam cross station, The construction of the new signal cabin at the Galway end of the station continues at pace,it is located on the original site of the cabin. A lever frame has been acquired and will be installed in the building over the coming weeks. A semaphore signal was refurbished and will be placed near the cabin and will act as the platform starting signal.
