Close Crossing

A 'Close Crossing' indicator is provided at Pinhoe to let the signaller know when a Down train is approaching the crossing.
The overlaps for EJ26 and EJ27 extend into their respective single line sections. If two trains are passing at Topsham, the warner routes towards these signals should be used.
A "close crossing" indicator is provided for Down trains.

Please note in this case that Exton station is inside the track circuit used by the 'close crossing' light, you should watch departure times at that station to avoid lowering too early.

Is there an event sound in the F3 menu that we can assign to this light coming on? It's easy to miss it if you are distracted elsewhere on the sim.

Not forgetting that these days, Exton is a request stop, so in realiaty you'd have no idea if a train had called there or not, neither would you know if a train had departed there and waiting at your signal until you got a call.

Does anybody know of a list of request stops between Exmouth and Barnstaple and when they were implemented/withdrawn? Would be useful to amend TT's with the recent request stop enhancement...

Not in sim at present, and from a realism perspective they don’t beep/buzz/bell in reality.

It’s possible they might in reality beep, some of them on Cornwall have a buzzer on

Does anyone have a definitive answer to this, or know someone who might?
