direct train movements on the main line and in the yard. System design objectives shall be

safety, operational efficiency, cost effectiveness, and upgradeability.

A. System Configuration

The ATC system is to be comprised of four major subsystems:

1. Automatic Train Protection (ATP)

An Automatic Train Protection system to enhance train safety and train

operation whereby the interface between the wayside signal equipment and

the vehicle’s speed control equipment provides assurance for and maintains

safe train operation.
