    What Are Raise And Lowering Pantographs Signs Used For?

    Railway pantograph raise lower signs are signs that are used to indicate to train operators when they should raise or lower the pantograph on their electric locomotive or train. The pantograph is an apparatus that collects electric power from overhead lines and transfers it to the train's electric motor.

    These signs are typically used in areas where overhead lines are present, such as electrified railway tracks, and where there are sections of the track where the overhead lines are not energized. The signs indicate to the train operator when to raise or lower the pantograph so that it does not come into contact with the overhead lines that are not energized.

    The signs can be in the form of a pictogram or text, and are usually placed at a sufficient distance before the section of track where the pantograph needs to be raised or lowered. Train operators must be vigilant in observing and obeying these signs to avoid damage to the pantograph and overhead lines, and to ensure the safety of the train and its passengers.

    What Are Railway Coasting Signs?

    Railway coasting signs are signs that are placed along railway tracks to inform train operators that they should coast, or reduce their speed and coast, without using the locomotive's power. These signs are typically used when approaching areas where it is important to reduce noise, such as near residential areas or wildlife habitats, or where it is necessary to conserve fuel or reduce wear on the locomotive.

    It is important for train operators to obey coasting signs as failing to do so can result in excessive noise, damage to the locomotive, and potential safety hazards.
