Generally. . .<br>
<br>
Route signaling is speed signaling by implication. <br>
<br>
So, diverging aspects can indicate a lower speed through the
diverging route of a turnout, compared to the adjacent track
speed, and regardless of direction.<br>
<br>
So, diverging aspects will be used when facing points, and may be
used when trailing points.<br>

Good to see you and All at the Convention.<br>

<div dir="ltr">Attached is a photo of Vera Jct. showing the signal
facing Peavine traffic. Why would the "main stem" from Columbus
have been considered a "diverging" route in this case? Perhaps
it is in some way analogous to middle sidings being signaled for
diverging aspects where they rejoin the main. I tend to think
of diverging aspects being displayed to facing points movements
where they are signaled to take a route that "diverges" from the
one they are currently on. Of course there are no "joining"
aspects, so did the term "diverging" cover the act of taking a
route that your current route is joining? Any thoughts will be
appreciated.
