On the National Rail website, I have noticed it says there will be no trains into or out of Sheffield on the 1st May, and a reduced service on 2nd May, due to 'resignalling'.

I am wondering if anyone knows what exactly is going to be changed - I believe the PSBs area will be transferred to York - but I am wondering if this will involve any of the remaining other signal boxes in the 'Sheffield Area' closing; any signals being replaced; or any engineering trains etc?

Apologies if this has already been covered elsewhere, but I couldn't see a topic covering this.

Thanks.

Specifically, I am wondering if boxes such as Woodhouse Junction, Kiverton Park, Beighton Station crossing, Totley Tunnel East, Barnsley, etc will go as part of the resignalling at the beginning of May - if anyone happens to know this information.

Sheffield PSB closes and is moved to York ROC. No other boxes are affected.

This isn't a re-signalling, just a re-control of existing infrastructure to York.
