There are fixed aspect red signals at end of track in Hoboken. Track 0 in Suburban Station Philadelphia also has red signals at EOT, I assume the other stub tracks do as well.
I don't know what rules are in effect at Hoboken (not my territory), but most terminals are not classed as main tracks, does Hoboken have cab signals? If so reports of 30mph seem unlikely
just a marker on where bumper block is, you still get taken out of service however
If Conductors are in charge, why are they promoted to be Engineer???
