This train control system comprises: an onboard device (3) mounted on a train (2) which travels along a predetermined track (1); a pair of onboard wireless units (4) mounted on the train (2); a trackside wireless unit (5) which carries out transmission/reception with each of the onboard wireless units (4) and which is established at a predetermined position on the track (1); and a ground-based device which is connected to the trackside wireless unit (5) and that detects the position of the train (2) on the basis of the propagation time of the radio waves between the onboard wireless units (4) and the ground-based wireless unit. If two trains (2) are to be connected within a pre-established merging/separation permitted area, the onboard device (3) stops operation by one of the onboard wireless devices (4) and sets a new combination with the new onboard wireless device which is operating. |
