Excellent shots... reminded me of my trip with Rohit Mohan to Hosadurga Road to capture token exchange and semaphores but unfortunately we arrived a week too late.. The token exchange was history there but the semaphores were present

@Dilip - The signal posts are powered by electricity for the motor to operate the semaphore arm and illuminate the aspects at night.
