INDICATORS WORKING IN CONNECTION WITH, OR IN PLACE OF DISTANT SIGNALS

At signal boxes where an indicator working in connection with, or in place of, the distant signal for thesignal box or level crossing in advance is provided, the Signalman must not clear his distant signalwhilst the indicator worked from the box or level crossing in advance for the line concerned is in the"On" position.

Where the box or level crossing from which the indicator is worked will be open for a period when therear box is closed, the distant signal worked from the rear box for the line to which the indicator appliesmust be left at Caution when the rear box closes. Where, however, the distant signal can be also workedfrom the signal box or level crossing in advance the distant signal lever in the rear box must be left sothat the advance box Signalman or Level Crossing Keeper will be able to work the signal as necessary.

Where indicators are pro-ided in connection with directing distant signals worked from the box inadvance, the Signalman must, before clearing his distant signal, satisfy himself that the Signalman atthe box in advance has cleared his distant signal for the line upon which the train is required to proceedbeyond the junction.
