I thought trains had a system like a radar or something that sends a signal at the front of the train. If it bounces off an object (the other train) then it sees there is a collion possible and alerts the driver.
Surely that should have been working? |
TPWS has been installed throughout much of Britain’s rail network. Unfortunately, TPWS had not been installed here.
