    Well they are not going down yet, but they have had those “vaders” up for a while

    Why is one taller than the other?

    @Driver8666 – I think there was a small derailment by a EB a few years ago which knocked over the previous signal. and so, for some-reason the one on the south track is taller then the one on the north track. seems kinda strange.

    Guys just to clarify, the reason the one on the south track is taller is because trains are coming from around the curve and the signal would be blocked off by the shelters on the platform, so they had to elevate it so crews can see it coming around the bend and over the shelters on the platform.

    Thanks guys!

    That does make sense.
