Nice video!

Class 158 😬

it's not a class 156 it's a 2 car class 158

The class 331 is my favorite in Stafford county railway in real life also two

is that caledonian belle

do you guys know the reason why red is on the lowest row its becuz if there is a heavy snow storm red is under so you can see its red and then you know when too stop or else you will not see the red light

A good video. short, simple, and easy to understand. Some points to make clear tho, as there is some important missing information: With semaphore signals, the distant signal relates to ALL the stop signals controlled by the corresponding signalbox. The distant signal cannot show "clear" unless EVERY stop signal controlled by the signalbox shows proceed. This means that should a driver pass a distant signal at "caution", they MUST expect ALL the signals controlled by the corresponding signalbox to show "danger". The signalboxes have interlocking lever frames, which physically prevent distant signals from being switched to "clear" (also known as "pulling off"). This is why a driver can assume he has a clear route through the area. In practice, there is ALSO a rule that if a signalman working a signalbox can only clear SOME of his signals safely, then he must NOT clear those signals until EITHER the train has been brought to a stand or crawling pace at the signal OR he can clear ALL his signals. This gives the driver even more information. A scenario is the best way to understand this: Imagine a signalbox which controls 4 semaphore signals in one direction: one distant and 3 stop signals Say a train has just passed the distant semaphore signal at "caution". That train is now slowing down, since it knows the next stop signal will be at danger. In fact, the signalman has a clear section in front of his first two stop signals, but there is a train in the section controlled by his third stop signal. This means he cannot clear ALL of his stop signals, which is why the distant is a danger (it physically cant be changed unless all stop signals are showing clear) The signalman STILL cannot clear ALL of his stop signals because that train in his last section, so he now MUST look outside and observe the train coming to a stop or a crawling pace in front of his first stop signal. Only then can he clear that first stop signal and let the train move on. And so, the train passes the recently cleared signal, and MUST expect the next stop signal to be at danger. Now, the train that was preventing the signalman to clear all his signals has exited the section. The signalman can now clear ALL his signals, so he does exactly that. the remaining stop signals controlled by him are now showing "clear". The train that was brought to a stand, however, has only just passed the first stop signal, and is expecting the next signal to be at danger. But when that signal comes into view, it is already displaying "clear". This lets the driver know that the rest of the signals are showing "clear", since he was NOT brought to a stand with the signal at danger BEFORE the signal was cleared: it was already clear. The driver can now accelerate to line speed until he sees the next distant signal (controlled by a DIFFERENT signalbox). In reality, most signalboxes did not controlled this many stop signals, but some of the larger signalboxes covering an extended area did. Also to finish this off, at junctions, you may have multiple signal arms stacked on top of each other. Each arm corresponds to a route. Signals are read top to bottom, left to right. The highest signal arm corresponds to the main route (straight through). The lower arm corresponds to a diverging route: if it is on the left, then the route diverges left. In the case of multiple possible routes diverging left, then the leftmost arm corresponds to the leftmost route.

The K1 is goin

Now do k1 vs k2

Pretty great that was! Though for my take, I've chosen to expand upon Tidmouth more than just one station.

Thats a lot of power, over 6000hp

nice

Great video as always Nathan, it's nice to see you uploading content again! That Class 03 looks good too. 🙂

cooking

Is that a new diesel shunter?

Man new layout?

Very lovely, and realistically the best I’ve seen.

ANOTHER SIGNALLING NON STARTER !!! This programme like virtually every programme about signals on the Internet, is to put it bluntly, a absolute load of nonsense. Signals you need to understand are just the LAST 5% of a very complex system. Without the other 95% you will never understand what signalling is telling you !!!

Good job man, i work on building these signals

Is Cabalnoo an option? The station closest to the Magic buffers.

Very nice locomotive

Interesting. Just to add, there were two types of semaphore signals, Upper Quadrant and Lower Quadrant signals. Both show a horizonal bar for a stop (or caution aspect in the case of distant signals) but while a lower quadrant signal goes down 45 degrees to show clear, an upper quadrant signal goes up 45 degrees to show the same. If you watched Thomas the Tank Engine, the episode where Henry crashes while pulling the Flying Kipper demonstrates why lower quadrant signals were considered less safe and thus used less as time went on.

The yellow shunt signals mean that the horizontal "stop" aspect only applies to movements onto the main line, and can be passed if the points are not set that way. This is a legacy rule, and yellow shunt signals are now only allowed to be installed in like-for-like replacements, they're not allowed in new designs.

what route were they doing?

When I was at VSC Clapham junction, lots of signalling points failures, ASE was 'Wrong man for the job'had to be paid off. Replacement narcissistic told by Chairman BR Board that he was to be sacked in 6 months time unless failures dropped. Bought in man from Swanley led a task force team found lots of equipment faults, he reduced failures.

Really Useful Railways.

I’m currently making tidmouth out of wooden railway but you got any idea’s?

Sweet, I love trains!

Why DO some semaphore signals go up instead of down to show all clear?

contact number

Class 88 and u would know if it was your

Cool video 👍

Nice running session. Time to drop the fire! Cheers!

nice

The disc signals are called shunting signals and what you call shunting position light signals

I like your name

Supervisor 👍 🤝

Great stuff! 🙂

You ever heard of Ray?

Very nice

Great fun! The carriages propelled well! Cheers!

Nice little session

Nice one. Sounds smooth and untroubled! Neat. Keep Safe, there. Cheers!

Nice model

Nice enjoyed your video cheers for now al 👏🚂👍🤗🤗

Why did you put #modeltrains ?

Amazing video. I don't think HSTs are DMUs, but I liked the addition of the HST

Lovel video you put together liked thanks DD.

Amazing!
