Origin

Removal of Auto Plate

The WON, in February 1987, claimed that SN.D4 had been converted to a controlled signal.

However, it is probable that the signal continued to be an automatic in terms of its technical operation, albeit fitted with an emergency replacement switch, and the removal of the auto-plate was simply for the benefit of drivers treating it as a controlled signal. (This possibly had something to do with Hullavington Ground Frame in the section ahead?)

In later years, despite the box instruction remaining to the contrary, an auto plate re-appeared on SN.D4 (2010+).
