On the morning of Friday the 12th of November 2021, the whole railway station in Saignelégier was modified with a new signalling system, monitored by EUROLOCKING.
The old relay interlocking “DOMINO 69” was replaced step-by-step by electronic interlocking, from Tuesday the 9th of November, while keeping the train in operation.
The Saingnelégier railway station is now the biggest EUROLOCKING in operation, monitoring:
- 17 Points
- 2 Derailment Devices
- 4 LED Advance Signals
- 9 LED Main Signals
- 25 LED Dwarf Signals
- 48 Axle Counter
- 4 Level Crossings (RGS & TyK)
This project dealt for the 1st time with a new track layout: the scissors crossover, which has now joined our standard features.
The installation in Alle-Centre, a 23 m2 prebuilt technical room, is housing the interlocking (made of 6 cabinets) and the uninterruptible power supply (made of 4 cabinets). The UPS can supply the installation with power for 6 hours in case of power network failure.
