Air Traffic Controller v Railway controller salaries
Bloke does job that I'm not doing...gets paid more than me...am I in the wrong job?

I'm pretty happy keeping my yellow book.
Ignore those rail salaries. The average is much much lower. Yes, it's possible for a signalman to earn that if said signalman is in the highest graded (9) signalling centre, is on London allowance and is putting in a maximum allowed 72 hours per week.
The same applies for the other jobs mentioned.
Source was probably the Daily Wail cherry picking it's facts again. An awful lot of signalmen in smaller 'boxes are on less the £30K per annum.

Having done both jobs, I fully agree with RedhillPhil. It's like using Swanwick senior ATCOs salary scales as an industry baseline when compared with, for example, TfL bus controller's pay.

I always thought it odd that the 'head honcho' of the NATS ATCO's union is....A NATS manager
