Australian Railway Signalling - Western Australia

Western Australia

Follows a practice similar to UK modern colour light signalling with junctions being signalled with rows of five lunar-white lights (also known as 'feathers'), though there are still many older colour light junction signals where a signal head of variable height was provided for each route.

Famous quotes containing the words western and/or australia:

    It’s a queer sensation, this secret belief that one stands on the brink of the world’s greatest catastrophe. For it means the fall of Western Europe, as it fell in the fourth century. It recurs to me every November, and culminates every December. I have to get over it as I can, and hide, for fear of being sent to an asylum.
    Henry Brooks Adams (1838–1918)

    I like Australia less and less. The hateful newness, the democratic conceit, every man a little pope of perfection.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
