For T/Os who work a line regularly, it’s not that difficult to be able to approach the timers at the prop[er speed so that they will clear. The yellow over S timers are easier to deal with than the red over lunar white since they give the T/O a bit of breathing room to slow down before getting tripped. With the S timer system, the yellow over S is supposed to go to a green right in front of the T/O if the train is going the proper speed which means that the next signal which was red will turn to yellow over S or in a few cases green. Red over lunar white requires the T/O to be a bit more cautious since the signal not clearing would almost guarantee the train being tripped. V/R or XL T/Os who don’t work a particular line frequently might have a bit more trouble and of course operate a bit more cautiously to avoid the BIE. |
