CENTRAL TRAFFIC CONTROL OFFICES FOR LONG-DISTANCE AND OUTER SUBURBAN TRAFFIC

BETRIEBSLEITZENTRALEN FUER DEN FERN-UND NAHVERKEHR

Pushbutton Interlockings, Centralized Control Boxes and Central Control Offices are the characteristics of the modern signaling technique for all railway systems. Central control offices with data processing installations check and control the operation aiming at the automation up to the centers of the interlocking areas. For checking, location and time recognition are necessary as a disposition basis, for which data display units and printers as well as a computer-controlled language output are employed. A special position is hereby taken by the outer suburban traffic, in which the point is close density of trains, punctuality and quick disposition. Here, the checking and connection of operation auxiliary equipment, as well as the coordination with other transport operators are to be solved.
