    Does the flashing mean anything, other than "We really want to get your attention"?

    It's to indicate you are approaching a junction so need to approach with caution for a crossover.

    PTGRail explains the purpose of 'flashing' signal aspects (and how to approach them whilst driving) really well in his British Signalling Guide video for TSC (this also applies to UK routes in TSW):



    (from 16:15 to 18:21)

    Hope this helps explain what 'flashing' aspects mean :).
