East End of Jamaica signals: Eastbound color light low home on the ground is on which track?

• A. track 2
• B. track 12
• C. track 3
• D. track 9

Answer: (B)

The key idea is how signals and track routing work together. A ground home signal with a color-light that’s in the low (clear) position tells the driver that the route ahead is set for a specific track, and the points are aligned to take you onto that track. In this East End Jamaica layout, the eastbound route tied to that particular ground signal is the track designated for eastbound movements on the diagram. Therefore, when the signal shows the eastbound low home aspect, you proceed onto that specific track—the one allocated for eastbound movements in that signal arrangement. In this case, that track is the one labeled for eastbound use (track 12). The other tracks aren’t aligned with this signal’s route, so they’re not the destination for this signal.
