Abstract

1,161,940. Automatic train control. ATELIERS DE CONSTRUCTIONS ELECTRIQUES DE CHARLEROI. 28 Sept., 1967 [5 Oct., 1966], No. 44235/67. Heading B7N. In a train control arrangement in which the track network is divided into zones, each controlled by a central station which has both way communication with trains in its zone, each train entering a zone is given a code name by the central station which it retains during the period it occupies the zone. Communication is by means of a track side cable which by means of crossovers divides each zone into a number of sections. The train supplies the central office with information relating to its zone of origin, its speed, its position in the zone (obtained by counting the crossovers) and its braking capacity. The central office stores this information and taking into consideration the ahead traffic and the stored information supplies the train with maximum permitted speed information.
