Brunel designed the first semaphore signalling system. The signals consisted of a swivelling pole with a disc and crossbar at right-angles to each other at the top - if the disc was face-on to the train that meant clear and if the crossbar was face-on that meant stop. I think it's still possible to see them at Didcot Railway Museum.

Cool! semaphores look so neat when they move, especially those easel types
