Signals that use incandescent light bulbs to display an aspect can suffer failures. The lamps often have two filaments for redundancy. When one of these filaments is broken, the second filament takes over. Scenarios can be written to specify when and how signals can become defective.

All signal failure tags are enclosed within the Irregularities tags. Each signal failure is defined like the following:

 <Irregularities>
    <SignalFailure signal="12" aspect="STOP" canRepair="false" />
 </Irregularities>

The attributes for each signal failure are as follows:

signal
name of the signal
aspect
either STOP or CLEAR
defines which aspect cannot be properly displayed
