I've seen RA indicators at Manchester Victoria, where there are no
single manned trains. Are they serving the same purpose?

Yes. For whatever reason (perhaps repeated "ding-ding-and-away" SPADs
or something), it's been decided that the traditional approach of the
guard giving the RA isn't appropriate at that station, so instead the
guard closes the doors then shows a green flag to the platform staff,
who then activate the RA and the train departs.

I think Manc Picc has it as well.
