Origin indicator
This signal is used in marshalling yards.
If a single protection signal is used for several converging tracks, a luminous panel is associated with the signal and indicates the number of the track from which a train can proceed.
NB: may be replaced by the converging track signal.
Example: '8' for track 8.
Converging track indicator
This signal is used in marshalling yards.
If a single protection signal is used for several converging tracks, there is on each track a converging track signal.
This signal allows proceeding to the protection signal from the converging track chosen by the pointsman.
