Bray Head signal tower, Co. Kerry, with the Skellig Islands peering through the haze in the background.
"Bray Tower is a signal tower located on Valentia Island in County Kerry, Ireland. The tower was built in 1805 by the British Board of Ordnance during the Napoleonic Wars. It was one of 81 signal towers built between 1804 and 1806 along the Irish coast to communicate naval activity in response to a possible French invasion. The tower was abandoned sometime during the mid-1810s."

Out along the tracks. letting the engineer know what's coming. Hoping for an "all clear".
CN 394 splits the unique targets at Powerline Road West in Brantford Ontario with CN 2333 leading the charge. The Green on the North track is for M371 who was around Copetown at the time.
It was an overall gross day outside, but with time to kill I did it by doing my favorite thing...being trackside.
Westbound Norfolk Southern manifest 13Q splits the matched pair of bracket mast former NYC signals at CD 309 on the NS Chicago Line outside Swanton, OH on the evening of August 4, 2016. These signals are the last of their kind in the state of Ohio and are living on borrowed time.

Thanks for views, comments and favs :)
45144 'ROYAL SIGNALS" passing New Mills South Junction with 1E87 15:26 Manchester Piccadilly-Harwich Parkeston Quay. The 'Peak' will work the train as far as Sheffield.

blagged night photographer and graham to stop at this location and ended up staying for a good few hours
This flagpole was once used in the old harbour to signal which were incoming and which were outgoing ships. It later was used as a meteorological station and moved to this location after it had no further use. It now marks the location of Pong Patchamit Fort
Ivatt 2MT 46512 steams away from Boat of Garten station on the Strathspey Railway during an "In Search of Steam" photo charter.

Location: Boat of Garten, Badenoch and Strathspey, Highland Region, Scotland.
The Pineville Northbound signal indicated a stop signal due to a local working north of the block. This is normal for this signal at this time of day, as the Southbound signal would show normal aspect of yellow.
Class 66 No.66004 "Climate Hero" with the 4M82 08:11 Felixstowe North to East Midlands Gateway passes what is reckoned to be the UK's rarest signal at Ketton, the down section signal between Stamford and Oakham on the Peterborough - Leicester line. This Midland Railway wooden-posted lower quadrant signal almost certainly dates back to the opening of Ketton signal box in 1900.
A sight that will (possibly) soon become history in Henrietta, a westbound NS intermodal train passes between the two sets of signals near the abandoned Lexington Road Bridge. A new set of vaders wait patiently across the right-of-way from the old color light signals that once replaced the Wabash searchlights. The vaders were erected a couple of years ago, so the time the color lights fall could be anyone's guess.

Arnside Signal Box is between Arnside Station and the Arnside viaduct which carries the railway line over the River Kent. Cumbria, UK.
Eastbound absolute signal at Tuner (formerly NI) in West Chicago. This is how CNW signals should look, with horizontal signal heads. Note that two have been replaced. I think this is the only bridge left on the Geneva Sub with these signal heads.
I have uploaded this picture just to explore the interesting situation outlined in an earlier upload on my site.
37250+37087 begin to back 7M71, the steel “blooms” from Lackenby into the British Steel plant, Workington on 1 May 1984. It seems odd that this move is delaying the passage of the passenger train (there are passengers on board its not ecs) seen here held at Moss Bay Iron Works' outer down home signal.
The most likely explanation for this is a signalling fault explored in the image below
I am glad that I was able to take three colors or more at the same time.
By the way, the world's first signal seemed to be installed in the London city in 1868, but seems to have exploded immediately.
On June 14, 2013 in Minamitanaka, Nerima ward.

ところで、世界で最初の信号機は1868年にロンドン市内に設置されたそうですが、すぐに爆発してしまったそうです。

Baltimore & Ohio position light signals glow green against a pink sunset as Amtrak's westbound "Capital Limited" approaches on the Magnolia Cutoff near Paw Paw, West Virginia.
These signalling platforms were a nautical version of railway semaphore signals and were used to communicate with steamships entering the port of Cardiff during the late 19th century.
