Canadian Trackside Indicator Boards

[charlielima]

I was wondering if anyone might know if there were a website or publication of the different Canadian trackside indicator boards, their meaning and when and where to use them along side a section of track?

Are you talking about wayside detectors? Signals? Track occupancy indicators?

Hey Evan,

What I am referring to are the trackside signs along Canadian railroads such as yellow or white triangular signs, double black diamond on yellow backround, green, yellow or black squares, combination of red and yellow square, etc.

These signs announce to train crews about CTC trackage, upcoming crossings overhead powerlines etc.

Any ideas where I might find a list of what these different signs mean and where and when they would be used?

Thanks

This might help:
http://www.mapleleaftracks.com/files/free/Rogers Pass Documents.pdf

It is the route documentation file that comes with Maple Leaf Tracks Rogers Pass route for MSTS. You'll have to scroll down to get what you're looking for, but it's there!

If you want to check out others, each route they sell comes with documentation, just click on the "product features" section:

If you are into MSTS, these are pretty good products as I've purchased many for my father (who isn't much into Trainz, but loves MSTS!). Either way, hope it helps.
