Signal berth codes?

[HChip]

Just seen this after a burst water pipe at Rye House near Broxbourne

 

[rower40]

The down line there now has H2O* in as well. Let's hope that 2O40 has been dragged out, and hasn't either been washed away or dissolved.

That's interesting. I updated the new site with the new signalling months ago, and it's showing correctly for me. I'm really not sure how you're still seeing that...

The codes are referring to the class 455 farewell tour, which ran today;
the 1Z45 mentioned is this one, which ran via Haslemere:

Realtime Trains | 1Z45 1515 Guildford to London Waterloo | 21/12/2025

Real-time train running information for 1Z45 1515 departure from Guildford to London Waterloo on 21/12/2025. From Realtime Trains, an independent source of train running info for Great Britain.

Probably because it was only shown when the first of the last 2 services run by 455's was actually at Haslemere. (There was so much demand that a 2nd last ever service was added, so much so it's made BBC News !)

Edit: I see Freightmaster beat me to it (they posted whilst I was typing).

That's a relief, and a nice touch. I was worried something strange was going on!

Sorry chap -- that was why I posted it!

At Sheffield Saturday before last, I saw SOFF which turned into FISH after a 158 arrived (which was a set swap, the 170 was already in platform 1, and the 158 went into the sidings) in platform 5.

They still refer to the old fish dock in the sidings at Sheffield

Cambridge PSB heralds their last christmas as a panel before the resignalling converts it to a Workstation.

Quite appropriate for Dawlish. Let’s hope it’s not a high tide!

A few I've seen this evening:

 

[cats_five]

A more or less disused siding near me has the code 'RUST'

 

[rower40]

A more or less disused siding near me has the code 'RUST'

First few posts on this thread (7 pages back!) explain why the signaller needs to be aware of sidings etc that haven’t been used for a while. Rust on the railhead could lead to a wrong-side track circuit failure, with the siding apparently clear, but a train in there, invisible to the signalling system.

Ashford Intl P5 currently displaying ‘ROOM’. Any ideas? Perhaps something to do with the Eurostar disruption?
