Steve's correct: the sign says "DO NOT HUMP", and is, of course, to be interpreted strictly in a railroading sense.
Placards like that and ones that read "UNLOAD OTHER SIDE", "UNLOAD THIS SIDE", "GLASS DO NOT HUMP", and "CAREFUL AUTO PARTS", along with "HOME SHOP FOR REPAIRS DO NOT LOAD" are available from Jaeger HO Products (listed on Page 2). One package contains three small sheets of the first five warnings in black on a white background, in various fonts, and one small sheet in black print on a green background with various "DO NOT LOAD" admonishments in several fonts and versions.
The "UNLOAD THIS SIDE"/"UNLOAD OTHER SIDE" combination is a useful one for adding operational interest, and I often place cars in staging so that they need to be turned before delivery to a customer.
