   Pete - If I remember correctly, in the CB&Q Operating Rules c-1910
(can't get to mine right now as I am rearranging everything so I can
never find anything again) is an example of the        type of  signal
shown in the photo of the Superior depot, and an explanation of that
type of semaphore. The brick depot was constructed in 1914, unknown when
this photo was              taken,    I would guess 1920.  The     train
order signal at the Superior depot during my life time 1935-until it was
torn down in 1986, was the standard train order semaphore. What the    
purpose      of the double set of blades      would be is a mystery, as
nothing changed as far as trackage, yard limits or operating practices
that I know of from 1914 on to the present.         Superior was  never
a dual purpose station, it was not possible for another railroad to
enter CB&Q tracks.  During the United Railway Administration (WW 1) the
CB&Q Superior                depot was used as  a Union Station for the
AT&SF and C&NW (whose joint station was adjacent to the Burlington
station), but they never entered Q tracks for that purpose.   Sorry I
        couldn't be of more help.    - Richard Kistler
