The link with text "Exeter Panel Signal Box" was pointing to Westbury railway station, which (unsurprisingly) doesn't tell me anything about the Exeter box. The text formerly said "Westbury Panel Signal Box", which makes sense with the link but was changed by an anon in this edit. Now, I don't know the history of the signalling but the piped link obviously made no sense, so I've turned it into a red link for the moment. I presume it should either say "Westbury", or be pointed to Exeter St Davids railway station, though that doesn't say much more about the Exeter signal box than the Westbury article does. -- rbrwr ± 09:54, 28 May 2011 (UTC)
I was going to add a bit on the current works. I'll paste a draft below. I'm not happy with the big tweet box which messes with the format and rather loses the ref but I think it's worth including somehow as the video includes a mention that Cogload is categorized as a 'Golden Asset'.
In November 2019, lines through the junction were closed for six days to allow for the replacement of the track and points. [1] Network Rail posted a video of the work on its Twitter account stating that the replacement was prioritised as the junction is a 'Golden Asset' where problems would have a major impact on the operation of the network.
Network Rail Western @networkrailwest Coaches replace trains for journeys through the Taunton area - check http://nationalrail.co.uk or http://GWR.com. Our renewal of Cogload Junction continues until early Friday AM - thanks for bearing with us #junctionrenewal Sarah Fraser is Project Manager..

Saturday 9 to Friday 15 November 2019 Saturday, Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday – All day, buses will replace trains between Weston-super-Mare/Castle Cary/Exeter St Davids and Taunton. Some trains which run beyond these stations will be amended. Some will not run.
Any suggestions, please - is there a better way of linking a tweet including video? Cavrdg ( talk) 18:34, 11 November 2019 (UTC)
It's probably marginal but it does give some idea how long these things last - 30 odd years since the remodelling? - and the importance NR attaches to the asset. Cavrdg ( talk) 08:32, 14 November 2019 (UTC)
