Method and apparatus for operation of a railway branch line |
摘要 |
A method and an apparatus for operation of a railway branch line, which has line devices, in particular points, signals, axle counters, beacons and/or approach signaling devices, for specific functions. At least one first line device can be operated in an active mode and in a power-saving mode. In order to simplify the switching from the power-saving mode to the active mode, the active mode of the first line device is activated by a second line device when a rail vehicle moves over the second line device, possibly after a predetermined delay time has elapsed. |

1. A device for operating a railway branch line, comprising:
at least one first track-mounted device configured for selective operation in an active mode and in a power-saving mode; a second track-mounted device including a train passage detection device for detecting when a rail vehicle passes over said second track-mounted device; and a communications link connecting said train passage detection device to said first track-mounted device; said active mode of said first track-mounted device configured to be activatable on a train passage detection or after a predetermined delay time has elapsed; and said first track-mounted device also configured to serve as another second track-mounted device, said first track-mounted device including a train passage detection device for detecting when a rail vehicle passes over said first track-mounted device. |
