Term · Industrial and trades · MLC-T-IND-001784

A short signal post fixed to a bracket on a main signal post, or standing on a signal gantry, carrying the signal for one route at a junction. Its position beside the main post shows which route it applies to, so a doll on the left gives the route that diverges to the left. The relative height of the posts shows the rank of each route.
