Railway Technology --> The digital age of railway signalling

Australia is moving to digital as it plans to improve operations on the country's railways. One key part of this is the trial of a new digital signalling system, in collaboration with aerospace giant Lockheed Martin.

The Australian Rail Track Corporation (ARTC), in collaboration with Lockheed Martin, aims to jump-start the future of railway signalling and communications throughout country. But how will this switch change the rail network?

This new, digital system, called the advanced train management system (ATMS), will display real-time information to the train driver on a display in the cabin. The on-train location system is accurate to 3m.
