railway signs

[Sulzer201]

Apologies if this has been addressed before but I noticed recently a new type of sign in the Greystones - Wicklow section, fairly close to the southbound, distant signal on the approach to Wicklow. The sign in round, colours black and white with a large letter "V" displayed in the centre. Have been curious as to what these indicate?

As far as I can remember these indicate that sighting distances might be compromised by Vegitation.

Often wondered about signs on the railway in general (mostly those intended for the engineer, rather than 'Mind the Gap'). Is there any resource available where I might find a glossary of the common ones?
