A question about the farthest flung outpost of the Met (if you don't count the Brill Tramway). I am modelling in Microsoft Train Simulator the line from Verney Junction to Quainton Road. According to the 1923 OS map reproduced in the Middleton Press volume "Aylesbury to Rugby", there were three signal boxes at Verney Junction - the LNWR box near the junction with the line to Banbury, the Metropolitan box on the eastern side of the station and a third box farther east still, located near the points that led into the Met sidings at Verney. Does anyone know anything about this box and in particular what it's name was?
Seasons greetings to everyone.

Many thanks, Harsig. It looks as though I can safely leave the Verney Yard box out of my model, since my timeframe is around 1960.
