<p>A method and apparatus for determining the position of one or more locomotives (102, 104) in a train consist. The receiver (108) receives a signal such as a reference signal from a global system determines a coordinate position for that locomotive. A processor (112) determines a relative position for the locomotive in the train consist based on its determined coordinate position. This process is periodically repeated for each locomotive in the train consist so that the configuration of locomotives in the train consist may be tracked or verified as cars (106) are added or removed from the train.</p> |
