Looking at the positioning of signals on certain routes, I'm guessing you sometimes pull up to a red aspect, only to see the train in front a short distance a way. Does this happen in reality?

I've seen it mentioned before, especially in delays when 'blocking back' occurs

The overlaps on station starters are usually very short (as the speed limit past a station starter is 5 mph) so sometimes you can be stopped at a station looking at the tail lights of a train that seems very close.

The signalling around Bond Street has very short block sections; you can see the front of the train in rear with a train in the platform. I would assume that the driver of the train in rear has an equal view.
