This is a brief (but hopefully still accurate!) overview of signallingas used in NSW. I am not safeworking expert, so if there are errorsplease let me know.

For an authoritative description of signalling in NSW see theRailCorp RailSafe website,and in particular refer to Rule NSG 606.

Double Colour Lights

Double light signals are used mainly in the area where suburban andinter-urban passenger trains are used. The top light indicateswhether a train can proceed or not, whereas the second light indicatesthe state of the next signal down the line. Giving the driver anindication of the following signal allows closer and more efficientrunning of trains in the busy CityRail network.

Often only a subset of these signals are used. In much of Sydneyyou will only see STOP, CAUTION and CLEAR aspects.

These signals are divided into two types: controlled (also knownas absolute) andautomatic (a.k.a. permissive).Controlled signals are operated by signal boxes and allow for protection ofjunctions and such. Automatic signals are not directly controlled;their purpose is to maintain the separation of trains.

Automatic Signals

Automatic signals can be distinguished from controlled signals in that thelights are vertically offset from each other.

Other Signals and Related Equipment

Guard's Indicator

This is a small black box usually mounted under the awning at a station,with the words 'GUARDS INDICATOR' written above a white light. This light is illuminated when it is safe for the train to leave the station.It is provided for the train guard, so that he/she does not blow thewhistle for the train to leave when it is not safe to do so.

Train Stop

Throughout the Sydney metropolitan network, you will notice a silverbox with an arm attached to the side which can be raised or lowered.These are situated on the left hand side of the track, usually nextto a signal. These are known as train stops. When a signal prevents atrain from proceeding, the arm is raised. If a passenger train attemptsto pass the location, the arm hits the trip valve on the front, which forcesthe brakes to come one.

You might also notice these spread out along the platform at City Circlestations. These are used in conjunction with low-speed signalling to allowtrains to run closer than normal, while still preventing a collision.

Landmark Signal

A yellow triangular which serves as a fixed distant signal. It is usedto indicate that a train should approach with caution. These are oftenseen on country branch lines at the approaches to significant locations.
