Although the platform at Broadley is complete, there is a large gap part way along its length. This is where the signal box stood and wooden boards bridged the gap in front of the box where the point rods and signal wires ran. Passenger services ceased in 1947, and Broadley goods yard closed five years later, but goods trains for Whitworth and Facit continued to pass through until 1967.
