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.
The smoke signal is one of the oldest forms of long-distance communication. It is a form of visual communication used over a long distance. In general smoke signals are used to transmit news, signal danger, or to gather people to a common area.

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.
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.

Ex Lancashire & Yorkshire Class 27 No.52322 passes Windermere Lakeside's signal box with a short goods train.
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.

Very much part of the scene on the Wigan - Southport line are the class 150 DMU's now approaching the veteran stage. Northern 150129 gets away from the Parbold stop with the all stations 09.31 Southport - Stalybridge service.
* Parbold still has semaphores and a manual crossing at Chapel Lane but this is due to go later this year.
The signalbox at the station has recently been repainted and looks pristine.

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
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 know the light coverings on mist cars are not glass anymore but I think the bulbs still are. This is a shot through my rear turn signal/indicator to highlight the bulb. HMM
The Train Order Signal at Riley's shines a high green and the L054 notches east out of the yard on the way to Rumford. The now defunct Jay mill rises in the background, in stages of being picked apart.

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。

Due to equipment failure via extreme cold temperatures, traffic along Union Pacific's Evanston Sub was at a standstill on Feb. 12, 1994. Two eastbound trains were stopped at Echo, Utah, waiting for traffic ahead to clear and a signal to proceed to Wahsatch summit and beyond.
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.
Another fantastic night in the Tetons! Last night we went up to Signal Mountain to see a stunning display of stars. I found it fitting to 'signal' the Andromeda universe, a satellite joined in for the fun too.
I'll be leaving the area soon, still undecided where to go. I have a few weeks to explore before my next workshop back in the Tetons (still some space left btw)
