No. These were placed here by the Pacific Locomotive Association for the delight of photographers/railfans/trainspotters.
At one time there were probably signals like this here, but when the line was abandoned in 1983 there were single head searchlight signals instead.

If the Niles Canyon Railway was a common carrier the signal 'blades' would have been removed.
Since this is a historical, preserved segment and carries no freight nor operates as a passenger railway I'd wager regulatory authorities and the locomotive engineer don't worry about it.
