once were semaphores

Upper quadrant semaphore signals survived in this region until earlier this year (2009). Alas, the signalling was completely renewed a few months ago. The new colour light automatics are in new locations, and unlike the semaphores, "up" and "down" signals are often positioned opposite each other.

 

Indicating "stop". The staggered marker light indicates that it is an automatic, permissive signal.
