VORMELDENETZ UND TECHNISCHE EINRICHTUNGEN FUER DIE RECHNERGESTEUERTE BETRIEBSFUEHRUNG IM RANGIERBAHNOF MASCHEN

Stations responsible for announcing trains advise the marshalling yard of the departure time and composition of convoys, the destination of wagons and information on any special forwarding arrangements. Through the train announcing system, it is possible to prepare the track occupation schedules, the shunting and splitting-up programme and other operational documents. The yard installations include a traffic control computer and a coordination computer linked to entry and exit devices. The data transmission installations are connected to the coordination computer through concentrators. Full details of the installations and working procedures are given by the author.
