Fahrtanzeiger / Proceed indicator:
Is usually mounted below a platform roof, when
the next signal is not visible when passing the platform.
When lit, indicated that the station exit signal shows a proceed aspect.
|
|
[obsolete] Signalhaltmelder / Signal Halt Indicator:
Can be mounted near a place where a train coming from a track section
governed by ZLB (Zugleitbetrieb / Track Warrant Operation) enters
signalled territory and halts. When lit, it indicates to the driver
that entry signal (which the train has just passed) does not show any
proceed or shunting aspect (i.e. it shows Hp 0, no shunting permission,
no caution or substitution signal). Then the driver, after having
checked that his train is complete, may tell the signalman that the ZLB
track is now unoccupied. |
|
Marks the box on the platform containing the activation switch for Zp 9 departure
signal. |
|
Hektometertafel (Hectometre board): This is not a signal, but an indicator giving your
position on the line. These boards are placed every 200 m. On multiple-track lines,
the boards are to the right of the lines, and every 1000 m the board is placed on both
sides. This one reads 136.8 km. |
|
The orange boards inform the driver that he is approaching a tunnel.
Should the passenger emergency brake be operated, the driver must override it and proceed
with no more than 160 km/h until the end of the tunnel. |
|
This board is mounted to the boxes containing the signal telephones. (Fernsprecher
- German for 'telephone') |
|
Zugfunktafel (train radio board). Tune into given train radio channel. |
|
LZB-Blockkennzeichen / Cab Signalling Block Marker. Marks the block boundaries for cab
signalling. A train stopped by an LZB (non-emergency) halt will stop here. |
|
LZB-Bereichskennzeichen / Cab Signalling Section Marker. Marks the begin of an
LZB-enabled line or the begin of a different section. |
|
This cross fixed at or over a colour light signal, semaphore signal, or any other
signal device marks this as temporarily void. In case that a main signal
and a distant signal are mounted at the same post, only the crossed-out
signal is invalid. If both signals are invalid, then both heads must have a
cross affixed. |
