Description
One steady red light.
Action

- A closed semaphore can be passed without stopping during shunting operations, upon the order of the shunting supervisor.
- In automatic block signalling (BAL or BAPR), the driver of maintenance trains is permitted to pass closed semaphores without stopping, proceeding on sight (marche à vue) at a speed not exceeding 15 km/h.
