A main signal and a distant signal of the semaphore system showing Hp0 (stop) and Vr0 (expect stop) in Aachen Rothe-Erde on 13 July 2001. D 423 (Oostende-Cologne) has just passed. Note that the distant signal is at reduced distance to the next main signal, for that a triangle is placed on it's post plate.
