摘要: |
This project demonstrated that the major suppliers of signaling equipment for the North American railroads could modify their existing safety-critical equipment to support operation of a vital interoperable positive train control system based on signaling principles developed over many decades. This project was undertaken to show a set of interoperability standards developed and maintained through an industry professional organization, such as the American Railway Engineering and Maintenance-of-Way Association (AREMA), could be implemented. Interoperability is important as trains frequently travel across multiple territories operated by other railroads. |
