MONITORING TRAIN MOVEMENTS AT PARIS-NORD

SYSTEME DE SUIVI DES TRAINS DE PARIS-NORD

The automated system described is based on the identification and localization of trains, and it repeats the information, together with the train number, on display panels and geographical screens, while at the same time entering relevant details in the register automatically. The controllers are relieved of most verbal exchanges and telephone messages, and of making entries in the registers; when traffic incidents occur they can more easily reflect on the measures that should be taken so that normal working can be resumed as quickly as possible.
