Narrative:
Upon taking the runway and cleared for takeoff on runway 23L, I nearly took off on 28. This is the intersection at the end of lima taxiway. As I made the turn and spooled up, the first officer told me we were aligned on 28 and not 23. A real save! I think better signs, flasher lights or caution signs should be installed at that intersection, especially for reduced visibility conditions--snow, etc. Even a reminder to check compass heading for alignment would be good.

Title: ACR LGT STARTED TO SPOOL UP FOR TKOF FROM RWY 28 AT CLE WHEN CLRNC WAS TO TKOF ON RWY 23L.
Narrative: UPON TAKING THE RWY AND CLRED FOR TKOF ON RWY 23L, I NEARLY TOOK OFF ON 28. THIS IS THE INTXN AT THE END OF LIMA TXWY. AS I MADE THE TURN AND SPOOLED UP, THE F/O TOLD ME WE WERE ALIGNED ON 28 AND NOT 23. A REAL SAVE! I THINK BETTER SIGNS, FLASHER LIGHTS OR CAUTION SIGNS SHOULD BE INSTALLED AT THAT INTXN, ESPECIALLY FOR REDUCED VISIBILITY CONDITIONS--SNOW, ETC. EVEN A REMINDER TO CHK COMPASS HDG FOR ALIGNMENT WOULD BE GOOD.
