Repeaters are complicated:
- See the section above for another types of repeater - the Turnout Repeater.
- Some repeaters look identical to the original signal, except for a
REPEATER/REP plate. Example:  . Map these as a normal signal, but add railway:signal:category:repeated=yes, and typically also railway:signal:category:height=dwarf.
