What is the difference between semi-automatic block system and automatic block system?
1 Answers
An automatic block system does not require manual operation or manual block procedures. More relevant information is as follows: 1. Semi-automatic block: This type of block requires manual block procedures. Trains depart based on the display of the departure signal, but after the train departs, the departure signal can automatically close, hence it is called semi-automatic block. 2. Automatic block: Based on the train operation and block section conditions, the signals can automatically change their displays. Trains operate according to the signal displays. This block method is entirely automatic, hence it is called automatic block. The automatic block is a device where the block task is automatically completed by the running train.
