A skilled, seasoned T/O provides that protection through savvy contextual interpretation of signals. Coded track signals extend that protectionro situations involving less experienced or less skilled personnel.

Really? This isn't hermeneutics.

I would imagine that NYCT's color aspects of signals are something that every single person qualified to operate a train must know. I don't see where the 'interpretation' comes in. Maybe you meant to pick out a different word; I'm not following....

Yellow over yellow displayed at a signal seems to mean something very clear; it's not as though it's something that one engineer should be able to 'interpret' one way, and another in a different way. Our ordinary outrage at drivers on local streets makes that clear, right: 'How much more GREEN does he want the light to get before he moves?!'
