Transmission of Status
Track circuit occupancy status, along with status of other signal and switch related devices, may be integrated with a local control panel as well as a remote rail control centre. If the track circuit contains a relay, it can be connected to a device for sending status information via a communications link. The status can then be displayed and stored for archival for purposes of incident investigation and operations-related analysis. Many signalling systems also have local event recorders for recording track circuit status.

Famous quotes containing the word status:
“A genuine Left doesn’t consider anyone’s suffering irrelevant or titillating; nor does it function as a microcosm of capitalist economy, with men competing for power and status at the top, and women doing all the work at the bottom.... Goodbye to all that.”
—Robin Morgan (b. 1941)
