Hi
Interestingly the signal box was only named Exhibition Junction in the late 50's/early 60's in connection with the Edge Hill resignalling scheme. Prior to that it was named Edge Hill No.13 although I believe it was known as Exhibition Jcn. by railwaymen. This particular box was new in 1929 and it would have been the old box it replaced which signalled the trains into the Exhibition Station.
The Exhibition was held near Edge Lane Hall but not in it. Bob Pinxton's captions often need to be taken with a pinch of salt......
