ATO/ATC/ATS requires an inductive loop installation. Think of this...
RealRoad covers long distances and does not require extensive comm
points...just a few milemarkers, stations, interlocking and switch points. NYCTA subways will be on the order of say every 200 feet.
So, you can mount a batch of RF transponders with concrete screws
and use the twisted pair for a LAN. System will detect and comm
trainsets but totally oblivious to hazards like broken rails...
something BART and GE discovered. 'Monkey Brain' will just drive
through and derail. CI peter
