Plans exist to recover a redundant LNWR signal box, to be installed at the eastern end of the platform, near to where the trees start. This will replicate North Wales Narrow Gauge Railways signal box style and practice. Other station improvements are in-hand and are described in Journal 122. Notable in the photograph are the improvements described in Journal 122. The platform has newly-completed platform edging and surfacing.
Attractive paling fencing now separates the station from the adjacent standard gauge railway.
Gelert pauses by Gelert's Farm signal box. The signal box controls access from the main line to Gelert's Farm works and is not a block post. The Porthmadog station forecourt shows the sight that greets the visitor. Ahead, the steam train waits to depart. On the right, the Cambrian standard-gauge railway borders the narrow gauge.
