摘要： A system for tracking a rail yard inventory may be incorporated in a rail yard that has a plurality of tracks on which a plurality of railcars in a train are moved and arranged wherein each track is associated with a destination of the railcars on the track. A controller, responsive to signals from sensors, counts the number of railcars that enter and exit a track to determine if railcars have been added or removed from the train. The controller updates the railcar sequence in the train and a database having data relative to the location of each railcar in the rail yard and sequence in which railcars are linked on a track.
