Pretty sure this is a mistake but the timetable editor is showing 'St Erth signal R19' yet the signal ID plate and the signal box diagram are showing R19 as being under the control of Roskear Jcn? If this is not a mistake, strange naming decision! 7-5-5, closing of comment Log in to reply The following user said thank you: elltrain3 |

It's the official name of the TIPLOC used by Network Rail, I presume it's been named that way as it's closer to St Erth.

It's also not the only one. Theres a location at bodmin with a Liskeard prefix signap, then baldhu and Redruth also have R prefixed signals given as timing points. I suspect its purely as the signal is the timing point for planning purposes, but giving the geographic location makes it easier to locate without a signalling plan to hand.
