Looking towards some of the railway lines in Kellingley Colliery seen through the fence from the path beside the Aire and Calder Navigation. The signal in view is used for controlling movements of trains during loading or unloading operations. The signal allows for slow speed movements both forward and backwards and signals to prepare to stop and stop immediately.
