Mechanical signal (Czech one) - a photo on Flickriver

[polski tekst poniżej]

I'm aware of a kind of repetition, as Piotrek published almost the same photo months ago, which you can see here. I decided finally to publish mine, as they aren't 100% the same, so you may compare two approaches to the same frame.
Duo of "tomcats" 742.220 and 742.353 at the head of the local freight train Mn 83421 from Hrabačov to Trutnov hl.n. is about to pass the entrance semaphore of the Martinice v Krkonošich station from the direction of Jilemnice.
The entrance semaphore has three independent arms, including two located one behind the other (the picture shows the upper arm raised, and the one behind it - not; the lower arm has not changed its default position). Apparently, this "repeated" upper arm plays a role of a distant signal to the exit semaphore in the station, but it's just a suposition.
The train has total 6 wagons: two two-axle small coal wagons (Es), two log wagons for timber (Roos), one four-axle full size coal wagon (Eas) and a shunting crew wagon (Da-k). The cargo in all five freight wagons is wood. June 28, 2022.

Trochę myślałem nad faktem publikacji tego zdjęcia, w końcu Piotrek zamieścił tu swoje, kilka miesięcy wcześniej. ponieważ podejście do tego kadru nieco się różni, postanowiłem nie czaić się ze swoim i też je wrzucić.
Duet kocurów 742.220 i 742.353 na czele pociągu zdawczego Mn 83421 ze stacji Hrabačov do stacji Trutnov hl.n. minie zaraz semafor wjazdowy stacji Martinice v Krkonošich od stroni Jilemnic.
Semafor wjazdowy ma trzy niezależne ramiona, w tym dwa umiejscowione jedno za drugim (na zdjęciu widać górne ramię uniesione, a to za nim - nie; dolne ramie nie zmieniło położenia względem zasadniczego). Ponoć to "powtórzone" górne ramię pełni rolę tarczy przelotowej, ale za tę informację głowy nie dam.
Pociąg na haku ma 6 wagonów: dwie dwuosiowe węglarki (Es), dwa wagony kłonicowe do drewna (Roos), jedną węglarkę czteroosiową (Eas) oraz brankard dla drużyny manewrowej (Da-k). Ładunek we wszystkich pięciu handlowych wagonach stanowi drewno. 28 czerwca 2022 roku.
