<p>[quote user="BaltACD"]I suspect trying to interface relay dependent circuitry with electronic circuitry can be a real adventure. My guess is that the railroads felt it was more economic and more reliable to do a 'clean installation' of 21st Century signal technology when installing equipment to support PTC requirements.[/quote]</p> <p>My question is why designing a PTS system based on GPS and then not use the advantages like e.g.: lineside signals only in specific locations, rolling block?</p> <p>Is the chosen PTC system in this light really the most cost effective?<br />Regards, Volker </p>
