Framed by the signal, Class 47/3 47367 heads towards the level crossing at Garvestone on the Mid Norfolk Railway during the Spring Diesel Gala.
The now removed semaphore signals at Cootamundra south, just on the northern side of the Gundagai Road level crossing. All the semophore signals have been replaced by colour light signals and both Coota North and South boxes are closed and all signals are controlled from the control centre in Junee.

Northern Trains class 150 units nos. 150215 & 150270 arrive at Kirk Hammerton on 17th November 2012 with a York to Leeds via Harrogate service. Much of the line between York and Knaresborough is still controlled by semaphore signalling.
A westbound BNSF freight on the Montana Rail Link passes the mile 192 semaphores east of St. Regis, Montana, on the afternoon of July 2, 2001. I miss the blades (and the SD40-2s).
The MP crossing the GTW back in 1982 with semaphores and tower still in full operation.This was one busy day for all of us
97302 and 97304 wait on the chord at English Bridge Junction, Shrewsbury underneath the semaphores with 6W70 Talerddig to Bescot empty autoballasters waiting for a Bescot driver to take over.
They arrived around 3 and a half hours early, so I missed them on the Cambrian. So I was glad the Bescot Man took his time taking them over! Sunday, 23.2.14
No less than five sets of semaphore signals guard the arrival of Arriva Trains Wales Class 175 No. 175003 at Shrewsbury that is working 1V81 1130 Manchester Piccadilly-Carmarthen on 5th October 2013. The train is arriving on the line from Crewe, via Whitchurch, while the tracks leading away on the left are to Wrexham and Chester. Copyright Photograph John Whitehouse - all rights reserved

47810 gets the right away from Yarmouth on an afternoon service to Norwich.The Signal boxes and Semaphores are down to go this year.
After seeing Amtrak Train 3 pass us, we wanted to catch Train 4 passing one of the few remaining semaphore signals that have been in service for 100 years. We knew that the two trains would meet in Glorieta, about 34 miles down the tracks, so we headed for Bernal.
Upon our arrival, I was amazed at what a sweet spot this is. A nice S curve to the north, and a sweeping curve to the south, plus an easy access to the signal. After a short period of time, Amtrak's EB (northbound) Southwest Chief, AKA Train 4 appeared around the curve with AMTK 10 and AMTK 202. We could hear it coming up the grade.
... will these classic but elderly semaphores continue to stand.
CSX has begun the work to replace these sentinels which have guarded the Monon main line for nearly a century. Word is that they will fall on Tuesday, March 24, 2009.
This southbound CSX local managed to time itself perfectly in between NS trains on the nearby Lafayette District. We spent a total of five minutes in Romney catching this train.
A very late running late Amtrak State Hoosier train passes past the classic semaphore that has been in place for almost 100 years in Feb 2008 .This would be the last year the semaphores would be in place at North Romney Ind.Its near 10 below zero this day
This picture was taken from a locomotive cab in December 1996 on the approach to Furness and Midland Junction, Carnforth, with Bottom End sidings on the left.
Carnforth F&M Jc signalbox (that controlled the signals here) can be seen to the right of the main latticed gantry post. The signal in the off position is for the route curving to the right, in the up direction towards Carnforth station.
The left hand doll on the gantry is for the straight ahead - Little North Western - route towards Settle via Wennington. The straight-ahead route was joined by a link from Carnforth station forming a triangle of lines with a signal box at each of the three junctions. Carnforth East Junction signalbox is just visible through the mist appearing to be on the track, though the line actually curves away to the left.
The armless doll on the right of the gantry is a relic of the steam age (I suppose it all is) where the up and down goods lines joined this route immediately before the up and down main lines seen here. The goods lines provided a double track avoiding line behind the station, it connecting to the many sidings and of course the locomotive shed.
Semaphore signals protect the layout at Lowestoft Central as 37425 approaches with 37423 on the 14.55 from Norwich.

The lower quadrant centre balanced wooden faced semaphores at Shrewsbury Station are reflected in an ATW Coradia Class 175 as it heads out of Platform 7 heading south, Sunday 10.8.14
3rd February 1984
Another to months, and Acton Yard would be closed as a sorting yard, with many of the tracks lifted.
Here the Great Western lower quadrants still control the entrance and exit, controllled by large wooden signal box.
We turn the clock back to 1982 and were at Brighton Park ILL where many railroads cross each other .The whole plant is maned my a small tower and lots of semaphores.We have a new GP-15's waiting for Amtrak to cross
Illinois Railway Museum's Frisco 2-10-0 1630 backs between two semaphore signals as it switches tracks to gain access to the platform where it will couple to its train. The car behind the engine is a former milk car which now serves as an auxiliary water car. IRM operates trains over approximately four miles of track on a former interurban line. The line is signaled, electrified, and has a passing siding for multiple train operation. The 1630 was built in 1918 by Baldwin and was intended for use by the state railway of Russia, but it and about two hundred sister locomotives wound up stranded due to the Bolshevik Revolution taking place at the same time. The 'Russian Decapods,' as they came to be known, were subsequently distributed to American railroads. Union, IL - September 18, 2016.
Possibly the very last time you could see class 20s and semaphore signals at Bridlington - the locos were supposed have been superseded on the RHTT workings after their 'final' year last year and Bridlington is due to be re-signalled in February.
This of course will see the end of mechanical signalling in East Yorkshire sadly.
The working is the only daytime one the coast line has seen this year, being off gave an opportunity to take photos from somewhere other than the signal box!
