Trap at JO Interlocking
The following information is provided by
Rich Darcy, Local Chairman, BLE&T Division 373
Two recent stop signal
incidents in PSNY at JO, point to signal confusion for certain
displayed routes.
Attached is a copy of a new bulletin order item and a map of
the location.
Remember: The signal to the right of the rail or switch is the
controlling signal for your move. Watch where the rail is
taking you, look up, that's the controlling signal. The 514E
signal is 12 feet Before the switch.
Check out the
diagrams for JO interlocking to see where the traps are:
