This is how advanced railway signalling and train control systems safely increase the rail network capacity. Capacity is a key consideration in railway signalling, and there are two main approaches used: fixed block and moving block signalling. Fixed block signalling divides the track into sections, and trains are not allowed to enter a section until it is clear. Moving block signalling, on the other hand, uses communications between the train and the signalling system to calculate a safe distance to the next train, allowing for more efficient use of track capacity.
