Tech/Engineering - Transport / Transportation / Shipping / nuovo sistema di controllo computerizzato del traffico ferroviario | | English term or phrase: OS track circuit | Salve, anche se è Natale, vorrei chiedervi se potete aiutarmi con questa sigla: "OS". Si tratta sempre di un manuale di un sistema di controllo del traffico ferroviario. La frase è:"OS track circuit occupancy detection is accomplished using a dedicated OS track circuit board in the system cardfile"
Qualcuno mi sa dire cosa significa questa sigla e sa va lasciata così in Italiano?
Grazie |

| | OS = on sheet | Explanation:
http://www.du.edu/~jcalvert/railway/ctc.htm
Centralized Traffic Control
.......
The movement of trains was recorded on a strip chart where a pen for each OS track section (OS means "on sheet," from the traditional reports that telegraph operators made to the dispatcher to update his train sheet) made a mark when a train occupied it. An OS section was the piece of track containing the switch, or any other track circuit. The chart was 16.5" wide, and moved at 3" per hour. A 200-foot roll of paper would last a month. A pen could be provided for each of up to 40 OS sections. The dispatcher drew short lines between the dots to make a complete record. This was only a record, and was not very useful to the dispatcher in handling trains. The dispatcher signed the train sheet when going off duty.

1 hr confidence: | os track circuit on sight
Explanation:
Secondo questo glossario, OS= on sight mode, modalità on sight, quando viene adottata la modalità di 'marcia a vista'.
OS On Sight mode;
ON SIGHT MODE
An ERTMS / ETCS mode that gives the driver full responsibility
for the safe control of his train. This will be at an enforced and
limited speed because the train may be entering a section of
track which is already occupied.
Non so se ti può essere utile, comunque dai un'occhiata al glossario, non si sa mai...
Buon Natale, a te e a chi legge e lavora anche oggi!
