Station Yards
editCan GCP operate near of in the middle of station yards where there are many turnouts and complicated routings? Tabletop (talk) 06:55, 17 January 2015 (UTC)
- Greetings, Tabletop. Generally a GCP isn't going to be utilized within yards, locomotives and their consists do not operate at cargo or passenger speeds thatare common out in the real world, within rail yards the speeds are slow and there are usually no civilian passenger car crossings which would require any such signaling.
- Typically within rail yards there is a central dispatch which has movement authority and oversight of all movements in the rail yard, connected via radio to all cab engineers and maintenance people et al. and that individual performs traffic control. Damotclese (talk) 21:39, 1 May 2015 (UTC)
