Here are a few photos from a rainy day in London.
A signal shows "clear" for an Overground train at Kensington Olympia:

And here is the train. On the left, a District Line train waits for its departure. One can see that the Overground has a third rail for providing power, whereas the Underground uses two power rails, one outside the rails and another in the center:

The signals on the Overground have only a single lens:

Here is the Underground train and the end-of-track signal behind it:

The signal towards Shepherds's Bush shows clear, but the next signal is still at stop:
