New System Of Railway Signaling.

audible signaling as a substitute for the ia
miliar semaphore system which 1t Is be-
lieved will be entirely displaced in course
Of time
The new system is electrically worked
and is declared to be simplicity itself. The
engine as it travels along the line comes
into contact with an apparatus, fixed to the
track which is worked from the signal box,
and sets in motion form of mechanism on
the engine. Instead of the engineer having
to look out for his signals, they declare
themselves to his ear Enthusiastically. Line

whistle which continues until the engineer
with his own hand turns It off, Both bell
and whistle are fixed inside the engine cab.
close by the engineer as he stands to his
lever. and should afford more telling
means Of notification than a dial on which
signs appeared The substitution of audible
for visible signals would relieve engineers
of the strain of perpetually looking out for
any particular signal or lamp. The appa-
ratus is so constructed thaN If anything
went wrong anywhere the whistle signal
would operate. The chief value of the audi
BILE signals would be found In foggy wealth
err and the new system Is therefore of
particular Importance in country so fog
afflicted as England Is.
