position of AWS magnet

[Jerry1237]

I think the answer is that it is "out of position" to differentiate to the driver that they are traversing from an unfitted line to a AWS fitted one but the standard certainly doesn't make why clear. Please note, the AWS is suppressed for train movements that continue along the unfitted line. The whole AWS in advance of the signal is peculiar to an movement from a through unfitted line onto a fitted one!
