Minor corrections: the MG line from Ernakulam to Quilon was opened in c.1958, so the MG connection to the CHTS must have come at that time. The MG line from Shoranur to ERG was converted to BG in c.1929, so initially there was no MG at ERS to CHTS.

Is that an overspeed indicator at 60 kmph?

The large number of semaphores is just because of the number of points. For instance, the take the group of semaphores at the left-most signal. The tallest semaphore is for the through line, the one to the right indicates that the point is set to the track to the right, etc. until the right-most semaphore indicates that the points have been set to the right-most track. Somebody can correct me if I am wrong.
