Australian Railway Signalling - South Australia

South Australia

South Australia uses two primary forms of signalling. Nearly all signal boxes in South Australia have now been closed, with most rail traffic is coordinated through centralised traffic control systems, either under Australian Rail Track Corporation control from Mile End or TransAdelaide control from Adelaide. Where these two networks interface, such as at the Goodwood level crossing or at Torrens Junction, control is usually from ARTC after release from TransAdelaide. Despite the almost uniform CTC control some signal boxes still exist, such as Dry Creek South although they are not normally switched in.

Famous quotes containing the words south and/or australia:

    Returned this day, the south wind searches,
    And finds young pines and budding birches;
    But finds not the budding man.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    It is very considerably smaller than Australia and British Somaliland put together. As things stand at present there is nothing much the Texans can do about this, and ... they are inclined to shy away from the subject in ordinary conversation, muttering defensively about the size of oranges.
    Alex Atkinson, British humor writer. repr. In Present Laughter, ed. Alan Coren (1982)
