That is the same as it would in Germany.

In Britain we would have a group of signals, one for each track the train could be going on to, and the driver would know what his speed on that track should be. Or, we might have one signal, but when green itwwould have a sign to tell the driver the name of the track he was routed on to.

That is the issue with Simsig - the simulated trains take their speed from the track they have been routed on to and the place they have to stop next, not from what the signal is displaying directly.

Interestingly enough, while the design of Romanian main and distant signals is based on German signalling, their equivalent of a banner repeater in mechanical signalling is clearly based on a British distant signal.
Two million people attempt to use Birmingham's magnificent rail network every year, with just over a million of them managing to get further than Smethwick.

Looking at that page, is Romania one of the countries that adopted the DDR speed signalling system? The aspects that include horizontal coloured lines look very like some East German signal aspects.

some signals indicate the speed alowed
example if the signals shows number 2 it means you must go with speed of 20 km/h
