If it is in wrong, in normal, what is their best distance (range) in depot?
• shunt signal 200m(min)
• stencil route indicator 200m(min)
• theatre indicator theatre 200m(min)
Thank you.
Standard GK/RT0045 from RSSB defines the readability requirements for the different types of signal for the UK mainline railway. Generally, equipment in depots would be category 3 (minimum 100m readability).
Have a look at the details here and if you have any specific questions, please feel free to come back and ask.
