Railway Signalling in Queensland

Signalling practices in Queensland adhere to 3 different systems. While the basic principles of the systems are the same, the difference is in the method of delivery and the traffic volume the system can support.

1. Remote Controlled Signalling (RCS) 2. Direct Train Control (DTC) 3. Staff & Ticket

Furthermore the signals are arranged in the following pattern based upon the signals actual physical construction.
