Trivia: Colour-light stop signals with semaphore distants

[Colin1501]

A colour-light distant signal reading to a semaphore stop signal is a fairly common arrangement, but how many examples are/were there of the opposite, ie, a colour-light stop signal with a semaphore distant? I can think of two to get us started (although neither is still in existence).

At St Leonards Warrior Square, there is a three-aspect colour-light at the London end of the up platform. This is Hastings' up IBS and Bo-Peep Junction's up distant. Before resignalling of the London end of Hastings Station, there was a semaphore up advanced starter at the entrance to the tunnel, with a semaphore distant on the same post - this repeated the colour-light IBS at Warrior Square.

Before the Gilberdyke to Ferriby resignalling, Brough's up home signal was a three-aspect colour-light. The distant for this was a semaphore on the same post as Welton Crossing's home.

I should add that in both of the above examples, the semaphore distants were motor-worked.

Until 2013 when resignalled, Castleton East Jn used to have a couple of IB signals in the up direction towards Vitriol Works. The first IB was a three aspect colour light and the preceding signal was a semaphore distant on the same post as his up section signal just after the station.

Couple of examples at Workington.

1) The distant for Workington Main No2 Signalbox up home/section signal. It is however fixed at caution.

This is a semaphore distant on the same post as a semaphore stop signal controlled by Workington Main No3 SB approaching Workington from the North. The next signal is a 3-aspect colour light at the end of Workington up platform.

2) The distant for moves from the reception siding to Workington Main No2 Signalbox's up Intermediate block home signal.

This is a semaphore distant beneath a semaphore stop signal. The next signal is a 2-aspect colour light.

Elmton & Creswell has (wire worked) semaphore outer and inner distants for its IB home signal, which is a colour-light.
