Hoping you learned folk could answer some questions I have after watching a recent cab ride video please.
There is an underbridge at Postwick with a 20mph limit, yet the bridge has clearly been recently replaced. How long does it take to get such speed restrictions lifted?
To the East of Reedham station there is a run of splendid telegraph poles with large numbers of crosspieces (official term??). I was surprised to see them still there, and even more surprised that they seem to still have at least a couple of wires between them. It’s all been resignalled so what are they for?
And lastly a more general question. When such a line with long signal blocks is resignalled is it to a similar system with ‘homes’ and distants? I assume it’s too far for the previous block signal to show yellow For the next one?
