Paul Woodring General Good illustration of CSX's use of Temporary begin (yellow) and end (green) Speed Restriction signs. Every sign has both colors, so that they automatically show where the restrictions begin and end for trains coming from either direction. Actual speeds connected with the signs are part of the crew's train messages. 7/15/2012 2:37:52 PM
Dave Curtis General Thanks for clarifying the use of those signs Paul! I think they were using them because the crossing gates were activating too late. As I watched the train approach, I could'nt believe how long it took for the gates to come down! 7/15/2012 6:16:54 PM
