Talk:North American railroad signaling

"Created" article

I didn't even know this article existed until just now. I've pretty much written this article in the railway signalling#Modern signaling in the U.S.. Should we delete this stub or copy that info to this article? cluth 05:10, 18 September 2006 (UTC)

For better or worse, I copied that section's contents, along with the Timetable section (as it is relevant, too) into this article. My above question still stands. cluth 05:13, 18 September 2006 (UTC)

Article title

If "signaling" is the UK term, then I vote to change the title of this article. The problem is: there's no clear defined word describing the same in American English. The closest I can come is "methods of operation," and I do have some official documents that would support this. Any votes? (See Talk:Railway signalling for the discussion of the definitions of signalling, safeworking, etc.) cluth 05:43, 18 September 2006 (UTC)

Confusion

I'm confused. Is this an article about railroad signaling in North America, or a diatribe about operating rules and practices?

See my above questions. I still propose we change the title of the article, but since no one has commented on that or told me whether a move makes sense, I'm hesitant to officially propose it... cluth 05:03, 7 April 2007 (UTC)

Light Rail

Would it be appropriate to add a section about standard light rail signals, with their white shape aspects?

If the information can be properly cited (see WP:CITE) with valid third-party sources, of course it can be added. Be bold and add it. Truthanado (talk) 15:13, 28 August 2010 (UTC)
