Findin 1/2 Speed Signals?

[boleyd]

Some signals seem to have a wide sphere of influence wherein they drop the maximum speed of an approaching train by 50%. This is done several miles in advance of the controlling signal. I want to eliminate all instances of these signals. The problem is identifying which signal is the case of the "new" speed. Is there any way to determine which signals have this function? Searching out each one is a real pain. Yes, I can place "dummy" signal elements just before to tell the signal to set 1/2 speed just a few feet in front of the signal but not beyond. But I still have to find them.

It would be much easier if I could just identify the "speed" signals and eliminate them in one go.

If you wanted to keep up a constant speed, try:

1 On non-interlocking areas use 05 type signals unless the track is a diverging use 06, or converging use 04.
2 Distance between signals should be at least 1 mile on main line and long distances
3 Stop using multiple head signals, 06 & 08's, unless they are used for interlocking.
4 Check that all turnouts are aligned in favor of your route.
I have use this set up for all routes and have not had any unknow slowdowns. The multiple head signals are nice scenic objects, however their function is interlocking, to control moment through junctions!

THANKS -- Makes sense. Lots of stops are from 06's when no other trains active.
