Putney Vt.

The south bound Vermonter rounding a curve kicking up the leaves at the posted speed of 60 mpg just north of Putney. Does anybody know what the “R” on the signal stands for?

"R" means train may proceed without stopping. Same as the "Grade" signals on the B&M. When red train may proceed at restricted speed.
