About Signal Spacing... - s.sathish08 - 15-07-2013

Hi,

I have one doubt,
If the Minimum Signal spacing distance which i found through calculation is 1600m,
Condition:
a) Where as the Distance between the two A & B stations is 1500m (Station A Plat LE end to Station B Plat LE end)

How shall i proceed in placing the signals in this condition.

Regards
Sathish

Assuming UK practice and not knowing the layout which provoked the thought, I'd try 4 aspect signalling; there has to be braking distance between the Double yellow and the Red but there is an intermediate signal at single yellow approximately half way along the braking distance.
