A fully integrated computer system will do the required job well. WAN - LAN and the local stations and sub stations will allow the on time information needed. Traffic control would be standardized and of the most advanced type. With PTC and the overlaying CTC a full, economically efficient and complete rail network can now be established. Detour due to maintenance of way or adverse weather can be routed most effectively and therefore again provide the society with the best transportation.
Maintenance windows are easy to establish due to the now open rout system.
This separation of train traffic and maintenance work leads to greater safety - performance and quality improves as a result of the reduction in interruptions due to train traffic. The running trains can now go stop free and will therefore benefit the National fuel conservation and environmental aspect. The HART - BEAT concept. Thank you so much again.
