ON TRACK SIGNALLING PROBLEMS RELATIVE TO MODERN PERMANENT WAY PRACTICE

In recent years a considerable change has taken place in the formation and construction of permanent way and in its maintenance by on track mechanised methods. Much of this development and application has occurred without the Signal and Telegraph Engineer having the opportunity to apply concurrent development of the signalling equipment associated with track work. In this paper the Author highlights some of the difficulties experienced with the continued use of old established methods for Signal and Telegraph equipment on track and suggests some alternative arrangements for development.
