thank's for the information on the signal's, I love learning new stuff.....
But, ... now my Brain hurt's !
Rust...... It's a good thing !
BRVRR A guess. Because the cross-over switch is thrown.
A guess. Because the cross-over switch is thrown.
SeeYou190My guess is because the track on the right is a full stop, and the track on the left is proceed slowly onto the diverging route.. -Kevin .
You both are close; there are 3 routes to consider- Straight on the main line, either side- How the main line cross over is set- How the turnout going into the tunnel is set
On the right, the signal is all red because the crossover is set to the diverging route so the right side main line is blocked, including access to the tunnel. If the right main line was not blocked by the crossover, the signal could be green over red indicating that the tunnel turnout was set to the main or red over green if the turnout was set to the tunnel.i.e., the right signal gives the status of the tunnel turnout, except when blocked by the crossover being set to the diverging route
ON the left, the signal is red-red-yellow because both the main line crossover is set to crossover diverging route and the tunnel turnout is set to the tunnel. It is yellow because there is a train on the next block, a warning that the engineer should slow and be prepared to stop the train at the next signal.If the crossover was set to the left main line, the signal would be green-red-redIf the crossover was set to the diverging route (right main) and the tunnel crossover was set to the main, the signal would be red-green-red.i.e., the botton 2 signal lights give the status of the tunnel turnout; the top the status of the left main at the crossover
This is one of the more complicated sets of signals on the Boothbay layout. The tunnel is actually one end of a reversing loop allowing us to turn a train and the crossover allows the train to be set on the correct side of the main lines.

SeeYou190...OK, I am lost... what is the current picture request?
Well, the last request was for signals, although the susequent offering showed none and made no new request. In that case, I'd guess signals to still be the request.
However, my railroad is currently "dark" (hope to have some train order signals eventually, though), so here's my current version of "signals"...

Show me some of your railroad's employees, please.
G PaineQuiz - why red over red on the right and 2 red over yellow on the left

Harrison requested, "More switching action!"
Here you go. Lots of action, not too good of a photo. NYC ALCO S3 #874 switching the team track on the Black River Valley layout.
More switching please.

A treeless scene...
Show me some more switching activity, please.
Kevin said: "Show me a scene without any trees."
The request was remarkably difficult to fulfill. New York Central S1B Niagara #6008 rounds the General Industries Curve at the head of a 12-car heavyweight passenger train.
More treeless scenes please.

a couple of "Jade Green" New York Central cabooses pass each other as their trains negotiate the big curve at the west end of the BRVRR layout.
Any more cabeese?
