I'ts pretty rare for a train from Balham to be routed towards Tooting. MPV's, perhaps, or track recorders might take that route. Certainly no passenger trains.

I admit no passenger trains go from Balham to Tooting but "pretty rare"? What about every freight for Tolworth?

Anyway, we ought to stop going too far off topic

525 posts 		I would have thought it would be rather rare for every route from a given signal to be approach controlled. I can think of an example, Moorgate, for famously tragic reasons, but otherwise the purpose of approach control is at heart the fact that some routes are different to others.

Repeater signals on PATH show the same aspect as the signal they are repeating. So he was passing *repeaters* showing red, not stop signals.
No, these were stop signals. There is no reason why a train would go into emergency and come to a stand just for passing a repeater.
Ah, I misunderstood what you were saying. I thought you meant he passed reds and kept on going. This could either mean they were a repeater, or they were timed signals that you didn't see change.
