I suggest that both the Home signal and Distant signal articles be merged into this, relatively new, article on railway semaphore signals. Looking at all three articles, a considerable amount of repetition is apparent. I don't think there is sufficient material to justify separate articles for each. Whilst it is true that home signals and distant signals can exist in other than semaphore form (i.e. colour lights) these articles mainly describe the semaphore type and any additional information that would otherwise be lost could be incorporated into the Railway signal article.

This entire section is pointless and misleading since it's actually a description of absolute block signalling. Eldomtom2 ( talk) 18:16, 22 April 2024 (UTC)
