Mechanical SBB CFF FFS signals outside the transport museum in Luzern. From left to right: Distant signal (disk type) announcing a stop signal (if the signal shows clear, the disk is turned to a horizontal position, thus invisible for the train). Shunting signal in position "shunting forbidden" (the other position, "shunting allowed", has both bars in the vertical position). Main signal showing "clear without speed restriction". Main signal showing "Clear with speed restriction" and the additional meaning that the train goes into another track than it would with only two arms in the diagonal position.

Mechanical SBB CFF FFS signal inside the transport museum in Luzern. Distant signal type "Hippsche Wendescheibe". It can be rotated and shows either the big orange disk (and by night, two orange lights) meaning "next signal shows stop" or the two white disks (and by night, two green lights) meaning "next signal is clear".
