A control system is for a railway yard with railroad tracks. The control system may include RCLs and sets of railcars on the railroad tracks. The control system may include railyard sensors configured to generate railyard sensor data of the railroad tracks, and a server in communication with the RCLs and the railyard sensors. The server may be configured to generate a database associated with the sets of railcars based upon the railyard sensor data. The database may have, for each railcar, a railcar type value, a railcar logo image, and a vehicle classification value. The server may be configured to selectively control the RCLs to position the sets of railcars within the railroad tracks based upon the railyard sensor data.

A system includes a safety mode activation device disposed onboard a vehicle system and operatively connected to a controller of the vehicle system. The safety mode activation device is configured to receive a status signal indicating a presence of one or more of an operator or an active work marker in a location proximate to the vehicle system. The safety mode activation device is further configured to transmit a lockout signal to the controller to prevent movement of the vehicle system along a route responsive to receiving the status signal.

The present disclosure relates to a train autonomous control system (TACS) based method for train interval protection control, and an apparatus for the method. The method includes: step one: receiving, by a carborne controller (CC), a train operation command sent by an automatic train supervision (ATS) system to obtain a movement mission; step two: calculating, by the CC, a train guaranteed zone in real time according to information of train localization, car characteristics, and carborne controller characteristics; step three: calculating, by the CC, track resources required to be used in combination with current mission information according to the train guaranteed zone, and requesting to a wayside information control (WSIC) for information of collided trains occupying these track resources; and step four: sending, by the WSIC, a list of the collided trains on the track resources required to be used to the CC according to information of the track resources required to be occupied by a train on a whole line. Compared to the prior art, the present disclosure has the advantages of high operation efficiency, communication resource saving, reliability, safety, etc.
