A few years ago a visit to the station I was surprised at the decending gradiant the terminal station is situated on. Half way between the bufferstops and platform starting signals each platform line has a Suppressor magnet installed .Whats its purpose? In front of the starting signals approx. level each signal has what may be a suppressor aws magnet. Could it be some sort of monitoring the inbound train speed to give a warning if overspeed?
