I don't think most lay people would remotely have a problem with the
"signal box" description - it's a box that contains signalling kit,
innit.

Most people, educated or otherwise, with or without railway experience,
would expect a signal box to be a (relatively) large building containing
aforementioned signalling kit (and human beings), from which signalling
operations are directed.

Like the Hornby Dublo model they had as kids...
