The one near the bridge will go somewhere around here. A white panel to be painted on the bridge??

Hard to say - I presume it would have depended how well the signal could be sighted against the background and any other intervening clutter.

Bingley has a white panel painted on the tunnel mouth which I would assume aided sighting of the signal amid the clutter under the platform canopy and footbridge, which are behind me when I took the photo on 10/08/2023. The caveat will be the stones may have been much darker due to fact they have not been exposed to steam trains and industrial smoke for 50 years or more.

The platforms have since been extended to the tunnel mouth as some of Airedale Line rush hour trains are being increased from 4 to 6 cars.
