United Kingdom Railway Lineside Colour Light Signal. Red Danger/Stop.
The railway signalling system used across the majority of the United Kingdom rail network uses lineside signals to control the movement of trains. The current system mostly uses two, three, and four aspect colour light signals using track circuit block signalling. It is a development of the original absolute block signalling that is still being used on many secondary lines. The use of lineside signals in Britain is restricted to railways with a maximum permissible speed of up to 125 mph (201 km/h). Red – Danger/Stop. Below the colour light signal is a Lineside Operational Safety Sign, the one shown is a Controlled (Nonpassable) Signal Identification Plate, the sign CE 52 displays the signal identity.
