4. SIGNAL
It is an indication given to train operator for controlling the
movement of train.
On railways all over the world, signals are used to indicate
to the driver of the train how he should proceed. The driver,
using his knowledge of the line and of the train he is
controlling, will make a judgement about how fast he can
safely let his train go and will proceed accordingly.

13. POINT AND POINT MACHINE
 Point is an arrangement used to connect one line to
another for the purpose of making a movement from one
line to other line.
 A Point is a mechanical installation enabling trains to be
guided from one track to another.
13

14.  Point Position can be
 Normal
 Reverse
 NORMAL: In this case train moves in straight direction
14

15.  REVERSE: In this position point causes
diversion of train from one line to another.15
