Default Southern's 13 Power Box Scheme

When did Dartford PSB close ?


Did it ever open?



Now I am confused.

Surely there was a PSB on the Down side to the east of Dartford
station - opposite the carriage sidings on the Up side. Standard BR SR
late 60s / early 70s grey box on the same lines as the SW division
PSBs.

Its marked in the 1994 SR Quail fringing London Bridge at Woolwich
Arsenal, Falconwood and New Eltham on the three Dartford lines, with
Cuxton on the Maidstone West line, and with Rochester immediately east
of Strood.

I am sure it existed, becuase I know someone who was an S&T technican
who I am fairly certain was based in the box. I thought the Gillingham
scheme was to replace Rochester (incl.) and east thereof to somewhere.
