In rolling stock maintenance sites, there is a need to place a recognizable and unique stop signal that cannot be removed without the consent of the supervisor who holds the keys.

However, its use can also extend to other areas, such as infrastructure construction, where it can be placed as an operability limit on tracks that are out of service or have limited transit.

FIXED SIGNAL PLATEis normally placed in front of stationary trains by every company boarding to perform work, thereby inhibiting train movement until all discs have been removed.

The FIXED SIGNAL PLATE can be customized with logos and inscriptions as desired.

The decision to make it padlockable rather than simply secured by a built-in lock was intentional.

Should the operator responsible for removing the disc fail to do so and leave the facility, the padlock may be broken and the disc removed in agreement with the supervisor.

In this scenario, the padlock, which is of modest economic value, becomes a sacrificial element.

As a common stop signal, its uses are varied.

In addition to the above, it is also used to demarcate work areas on tracks where multiple companies are operating, thus ensuring the management of interference between work crews.

Its simplicity and purpose make the FIXED SIGNAL PLATE an essential element in all environments where limiting or stopping a train is imperative for managing activities.
