Takeaways

  • 🚞 The video discusses various aspects of the Indian Railways' traffic system, including Admiral Board, Ninth Class, Test, and Signal.
  • 🛤️ 'Warning Board' is used to alert drivers that they are approaching a house or station, and comes in three types: Passenger Morning, Good Morning, and Advanced Warning System.
  • 🚏 'Passenger Morning Board' is placed 1000 meters before the first signal of the station to inform the locomotive pilot about the proximity to the station.
  • 🚦 'Good Morning Board' is a black-colored board with two green stripes and is placed 14 meters before the first signal at each station to indicate the station's approach.
  • 🔔 'Advanced Approach Warning System' (AAW) is a yellow round board with black stripes used at stations where trains travel over 120 km/h, except for automatic signal areas.
  • 🚨 'Last Board' is a white board with a black rose in the middle, placed 500 meters before a class station to inform about the approaching train.
  • 📍 'Inside the Guard' is a round board with black letters indicating the section where two people are together and the train forgets that point.
  • 🛑 'Engine Oil' is an elongated board with black letters on a yellow background, indicating the need for the train to stop at the passenger express platform.
  • 🌪️ During adverse weather conditions like storms, additional boards and signals are used to assist station masters and signalmen.
  • 👀 'Visibility Test Object' is placed 180 meters from the station master's office to check visibility, and if not visible, it indicates poor visibility at the station.

Q & A

  • What are the different types of warning boards mentioned in the video?

    -The video discusses three main types of warning boards: Passenger Warning, Goods Warning, and Advance Warning System.

  • What is the purpose of the Passenger Warning board?

    -The Passenger Warning board alerts the loco pilot that they are approaching a station signal. It is typically installed 1,000 meters before the first signal at a station.

  • How is the Goods Warning board used, and what does it look like?

    -The Goods Warning board is black with two yellow horizontal stripes and a cross in the middle. It is placed 14 meters before the first signal at a station to inform the loco pilot of a goods train that they are nearing a station.

  • What is the function of the Advance Approach Warning System board?

    -The Advance Approach Warning System board is a yellow circular board with black diagonal stripes. It is used in non-automatic signal areas where trains run at speeds exceeding 120 km/h. It provides an audio-visual warning to the loco pilot as the train approaches.

  • Why are reflectors used on certain warning boards?

    -Reflectors are used on certain warning boards, such as the Passenger and Goods Warning boards, to ensure visibility during nighttime, allowing the loco pilot to see the board clearly.

  • What is the purpose of the Visibility Test Object?

    -The Visibility Test Object is used during stormy or foggy weather to test visibility for the station master. It is placed 180 meters from the station master’s office and is illuminated at night to check if visibility is adequate for safe train operations.

  • What is the significance of the Fog Signal Post?

    -The Fog Signal Post, also known as a Cock Signal Post, helps loco pilots during foggy conditions. It involves placing two detonators 10 minutes apart near the post to alert the loco pilot, ensuring they remain cautious.

  • How is the Speed Reduction Marker used?

    -The Speed Reduction Marker, a yellow rectangular board with 'NG Stop' written on it, is placed where a passenger or express train needs to stop at a platform, ensuring safe and accurate halting.

  • What is the procedure followed during low visibility caused by fog?

    -During low visibility caused by fog, detonators are placed near the Fog Signal Post to alert the loco pilot. The pilot then becomes cautious and prepares for possible signal changes.

  • What did the video conclude about the various boards and warning systems?

    -The video concluded by summarizing the details of several boards and warning systems, including the Traffic Course, Admiral Board, Advance Approach Warning System, and others, highlighting their importance in railway safety.
