Thank you for your email received by Transport for London (TfL) on 3 January 2019. I am sorry for the delay in responding to you.

Your request has been processed in accordance with the requirements of the Freedom of Information Act and TfL’s information access policy.

Unfortunately we do not hold the information you have requested.

However, there are a few archived files which we found which may be of use to you, although they may not contain the precise information you require. To view these documents you can arrange a research visit to TfL’s Corporate Archives. Please email [email protected] for more details.

LT001537/019	TFL009426	City and South London Railway (CSLR) - Old Files and Papers	23 Feb 1934-8 Mar 1934	Correspondence and memoranda concerning the storage of old correspondence, plans and papers related to CSLR.
LT001508/002	TFL014157	City and South London Railway (CSLR): enlargement of tunnels and alterations at stations - contract number 3	24-May-22	Contract between Charles Brand and Son and City and South London Railway for the enlargement of railway tunnels running from Euston Station to Angel Station. Subjects include work specifications, general conditions, and costs for materials and labour.

If you are interested in researching the context of the history of the signal cabin, I would also recommend the Board and General Committee Minute books of the City and South London Railway which are on deposit at the London Metropolitan Archives (LMA). They are part of our collection but have been looked after by the LMA on our behalf. Access to these items needs to be via their search room, details on opening hours and applying for a History card can be found on their website at https://www.cityoflondon.gov.uk/things-to-do/london-metropolitan-archives/visitor-information/Pages/default.aspx

The LMA’s catalogue can be accessed here: https://search.lma.gov.uk/scripts/mwimain.dll?logon&application=UNION_VIEW&language=144&file=[WWW_LMA]home.html

The particular items I would recommend would be Acc/1297/CSL/01/009, Acc/1297/CSL/01/010, Acc/1297/CSL/01/013.

Please see the attached information sheet for details of your right to appeal.

Yours sincerely
