The old world charm of railways, the point switch, the point signal, wow I just miss the old days. Posted by Anurag Bist on 2012 Feb 29 20:40:29 +0000 |

The are two types semaphores on single mast. The upper one being the "Home" signal and the lower one being the "Warner" signal, which has its arm painted in yellow and has a ">" cut on the arm. If both the Home and Warner are down, that means the train does not have to stop at the station and it can proceed till the next block section. The "directional signals", that is multiple semaphore signals on the same "T" mast indicate the loop line the train is going to. Then you have the "Co-acting" signals, which like home and warner are on the same mast but are operated via single lever. These are installed behind the FOB for better visibility for the train driver. The signal here, neither serves the purpose of "Home and Warner", not directional. I am not sure if it is a "co-acting signal". Posted by Anurag Bist on 2012 Feb 29 20:35:32 +0000 |

It is a very nice picture and a lot of effort has gone into restoration and plinthing of this locomotive. Unfortunately, in the end, it does not look anything like a MAWD locomotive. All they needed was to look at a few pictures of these locomotives when in service. IRFCA Gallery to start with… Posted by Harsh Vardhan on 2012 Feb 29 19:52:21 +0000 |

Great timing on this shot! I'm curious, how much freight traffic does this section see? Seems significant enough! Posted by Bharat Vohra on 2012 Feb 29 16:05:50 +0000 |
