Default Gunnersbury signal

I've been asked about a signal allegedly at the south/west end of the
eastbound platform at Gunnersbury (that is, at the Richmond end of
the platform used by trains coming *from* Richmond). I'm not aware
of any such signal - there are no routes from the east into that
platform - and won't have a chance to visit in the near future. Does
anyone know anything or can describe it to me?


There's an elevated Limit of Shunt signal at the Richmond end of the
Up platform (no. GB507). As you say, there are no routes reading up to
it. It's fitted with a trainstop and it's there to prevent trains
setting back wrong road to Richmond without authority.
