Abstract: An automated control system for the track switches on the hump tracks of a two-section classification yard having two inlet hump tracks interconnected by a cross-over, allowing manually controlled or automated routing of cars from each hump track to any destination track in either section of the yard. The control system, actuated primarily by two selector switches, affords three distinct operating conditions: (1) automated route switching from the first hump track to any classification track in either section of the yard; (2) automated route switching from the second hump track to any classification track in either section of the yard; and (3) cross-over switching from either hump track to the other under manual control. The system automatically inhibits other operating conditions to preclude erroneous operation.
