RE: (erielack) Signal question - East Lincoln Park

The next signal on the Boonton Line after Mountain View Crossing was
located just east of the Ramapo River Bridge, east of Ryerson Road.  It
governed the turnout into the siding as well as a block for normal
movements.

Rich,

I believe there were no intermediate signals between Mt. View and East
Lincoln Park, correct? If so, then the Mountain View westbound signal
was also an approach for East Lincoln Park, correct?

Based on your statement, then, you would never see a green aspect on
either the middle or lower signal? The best possible aspect was a yellow
bulb? (i.e., a westbound heading onto the Boonton Line [completely
unoccupied] would receive a Red-Red-Yellow?
