Approach to what? All these suggestions on signals and bigger/more signs make absolutely no sense if you know anything about railroading operating rules. You can't just install signs or signals without defining their purpose, meaning, location, etc. A "searchlight approach signal" has a specific meaning and purpose, and that has absolutely nothing to do with permanent speed restrictions.
