Correct me if I'm wrong, but EB trains going over to 2 at Grandville will get a Medium Clear now, right?SD80MAC wrote:It's nice having Ivanrest signaled in both directions now. So far the new dwarfs are a lot easier to see than the old ones, too.

Re: More new signals on the Grand Rapids sub
No, eastbound trains going from the main to 2 at Grandville will get a clear, then an approach at Ivanrest, then a restricting at Lamar (for the most part). A train going to 1 would get an approach medium at Dewent and then a medium clear at Grandville. Likewise, westbound trains on 1 get an approach medium at Ivanrest then a medium clear at Grandville.MQT3001 wrote:Correct me if I'm wrong, but EB trains going over to 2 at Grandville will get a Medium Clear now, right?SD80MAC wrote:It's nice having Ivanrest signaled in both directions now.

Cannot believe I typed out for two track. You're right, track one is via the reverse switch.SD80MAC wrote:No, eastbound trains going from the main to 2 at Grandville will get a clear, then an approach at Ivanrest, then a restricting at Lamar (for the most part).

What were they getting before this most recent cutover?

Re: More new signals on the Grand Rapids sub
Same thing IIRC. At least for 2 track east and 1 west. I never went from the main to one eastbound before the cutover. I would guess that before eastbound trains got a medium approach at Grandville going to one.
