Welcome to the BHLR Signalling Diagram


The Track Diagram

The track plan is now 'live' with regard to train location, loco names if set.

New for 2024 Signal aspects will also displayed.(Work in Progress)

The 'live' data is driven by Raspberry Pi and MQTT Technologies

Train Location

When a train is on a section of track, it is detected due to the wheels creating a short circuit, the location of trains are shown in red.


Loco Name

When a train has had a specific loco name assigned to it the name will appear in blue either above or below a track section associated with that train it will then be moved signal to signal as the train progress around the circuit or is being shunted.

During its journey the name will move to the next signal, waiting for the train to reach it, then move on when the train passes that signal.



Signals

Signal aspect status are shown in the same manner as the actual signal:

For the semaphore signals the 'arm' is shown as either horizontal for stop, or 45o for clear to proceed.

For the colour light signals, the aspect is either red for stop or greenfor proceed or yellow for proceed with caution
