What is or was the highest line speed ever allowed under semaphore signalling? Presumably nothing higher than 90 or 100mph, officially? (The Midland Main Line comes to mind, for some reason.) Are there any high-speed sections of line with sempaphore signalling today?
Was/is the existence of semaphore rather than colour light signalling a criteria in setting line speed? I guess it gets harder to spot such signals the faster you go.
