Monitoring directional train influencing devices in railway operation involves operating devices to transmit information with maximum travel restriction, checking information transmitted

摘要

The method involves setting train influencing devices (BRL,BLR) of a data point against the associated control travel direction (RL,LR) in test mode, thereby operating the devices to transmit information to a passing vehicle with maximum travel restriction if accepted by the vehicle, checking if this information has actually been transmitted to the vehicle and assessing detection of the information as an indication that the devices are working.
