Detonators

1. Brief Description

Detonating signals, otherwise known as detonators or fog signals, are appliances which are fixed on the rails and when an engine or a vehicle passes over them, they explode with a loud report so as to attract the attention of the Loco Pilot.
A detonator when required to be used shall be placed on the rail with the label or brand facing upwards and shall be fixed to the rail by bending the clasps around the head of the rail.
In case of a mixed gauge, detonators shall be placed on the common rail or one rail of each gauge.
