also depends on speed of trains, density of traffic, siting and various other factors. <br /> <br />4 aspect signalling occurs on the most densely used lines; basically ot give the most block sections available. Trains although timetabled to achieve constant greens in theory usually end travelling on consistent 2 yellows. <br /> <br />Brewster - check yer facts son. In my profession I have taken calls from drivers who have hummed away at 110Mph and then seen the next signal at red due to a failure of some description. They do not know what is around the corner and you wonder what goes thru their minds. when I have picked up that phone all you can hear in their voice is pure terror.
