Approach Restricting

[NW Mailing List]

Did the N&W signaling system ever include the "Approach Diverging" aspect (
/ over \ )?
If so, how was it used?  How was it different than plain ole Approach?
Ostensibly, rather that approaching the next signal prepared to stop you
could approach the next signal prepared to proceed at restricting speed,
but what difference would this make?  In both cases, it appears that the
only requirement was to immediately slow your train to medium speed or
below.
