    • Yes, it’s a sign (or signal) used by railway networks to communicate information to trains, such as switching changes on the route ahead, maintenance, speed changes, etc. Whoever did this, knew EXACTLY what he was doing, since, if there is one piece of technology on the railway system that you would want to target in order to cause havoc, this is it. However, he also shows an incredible lack of thinking things through, because these signs are also monitored by CCTV systems 24/7.
