fixed red
This signal fixed at stop denotes the limit of authority for terminating trains running in the down direction on the up local line into Revesby station. This signal enables trains to approach under a running indication on the previous signal rather than the shunting (calling on) indication that would be needed if a stop board or similar limit of authority was used.
In NSW, signals fixed at red do not have a number, although they do require the same authority to pass as a controlled signal at stop.
Maintenance train M551, consisting of spoil wagons, is in the background.
