Fouling Point Signs & Markers

Workers switching a cut of cars at a rail yard can often misjudge how far they could shove the lead car towards the switch. If there is no marker in place on the track, the worker would not know where to stop. This situation is known as “fouling the track.” Left uncorrected, a fouled track will cause a collision with a passing train.

Our permanent, highly visible, all-weather Track Clearance Marker tells switching crews how far they can move a car without “fouling” converging tracks. Stay compliant and avoid unnecessary accidents. Aldon Company, Inc. has the quality products you need to keep you on track.
