Abstract:
A track collision avoidance control system including a train having an onboard control system for controlling one or more characteristics of the train. The track collision avoidance control system can further include a warning indication system comprising a transmitter linked to a communication system supported about the train, the communication system comprising a receiver operable to receive a signal from the transmitter, the signal comprising information pertaining to a potentially dangerous condition. The transmitter can be operable alone or in combination with a warning indicator, an actuator and their associated logic circuitry, such that the transmitter is caused to transmit upon the warning indicator being activated. The communication system can interface with an onboard control system of the train. The communication system can receive the signal, which can be used to facilitate an avoidance action to be taken relative to the train.
