What are supplementary arrow signs in railways?
'Supplementary arrow signs' are the arrows that can be seen just beneath some signals or signage such as speed limits on a railway.
One use for supplementary arrow signs is to clarify to a driver which line a signal relates to, this is especially helpful when a signal is located between two parallel tracks. Another place you will find supplementary arrows is where a signal or speed restriction applies only to a specific route, for example, just before a junction or crossover where the speed restriction does not apply to trains travelling straight ahead or on shunting signals near a turnout, in this instance the arrow will point to the route it applies to rather than the track to which it is allocated.
