Similar notices were at Malago Vale sidings before it was closed,
just wondering if the sign might still be there and shrouded by the new homes.

Still there in 2018 though no longer readable - this cab video shows it at 32' 42" - but it may have vanished the following year.

I can't recall the words but it was an instruction to shut down the loco engines when stationary at the signal (because the loco is practically within the bedrooms of the terrace of houses alongside).

Is it to do with the easing of springs?

Does anyone... have a photo of the notice by the signal at the exit to the loop? Is it still there?
