Title: Lights at Woden Bus Station
Post by: vnguyen on December 03, 2014, 01:38:56 PM
Does anyone know what were the red and green lights above platform  9 used for? I think there are on the other platforms but I didn't get a chance to look. There is also a yellow beacon light near the red and green one.

Red - Stop
Green - Go

Yes, they are on other platforms. They date back to the days when intertown departures were coordinated with feeder bus arrivals through a basic signalling system.
