The warning signal So 16 is placed in the braking distance in front of level crossings and shows the driver by the signals So16a and So16b whether the level crossing in front is secured. The signal term So16a means that the level crossing is secured and passable. It is indicated by a white light. If there is no white light after passing the switch-on contact, it means So16b. In this case the locomotive driver has to stop in front of the level crossing, because it can be assumed that the level crossing is not secured.
Signals like the So16 are only used for train-operated crossings. This means that the level crossing is not operated by a signal box or similar, but is usually operated by passing over a switch-on contact in the track.
Many thanks to Mika K. 'laurinlaki' for the implementation of the scripts
