Hoodi halt photo must be in main blog
⏺️Remove these lines from main blog "For Delhi metro there may be (like at at change over stations like yamuna bank) or may not be a signal ( mandi House/Central secretariat)
In underground stations 'H' sign is painted at walls and in level or at height stations it is painted at the floor which is visible to the pilot using the mirror reflectors fixed over it.
So, the train is essentially stopped at the beginning of 'H" symbol not ahead of it , not before it.
Separate 'H" signs are painted for 6 car/8 car trains."
