Estaciones secundarias Explanation: Wayside: borde del camino. Parecen ser estaciones secundarias según algunas nomenclaturas, en contraposición con las terminales o principales. Te envío un pr de refencias, la primera con fotos de wayside stations y la segunda sobre estaciones principales y sendarias en Bolivia. Un saludo.

costado de la vía Explanation: Las posibilidades son muchas. Wayside significa literalmente: 1. the side of the way; land immediately adjacent to a road, highway, path, etc.; roadside. (The Random House Webster's Unabridged Dictionary) 2. being, situated, or found at or along the wayside: Example: a wayside inn. Por lo tanto, una traducción acertada sería "al costado del camino", "a la orilla del camino, la ruta, etc." AHORA BIEN, en contexto de FERROCARRIL, la encuentro usada así: AEI Rail Network System - a group of programs used to track rail vehicle movements on an entire railroad. This system communicates with a number of WAYSIDE AEI readers that dial into the system's two redundant servers (in a hotstandby configuration) and send AEI data each time a train passes a reader. In most cases the WAYSIDE readers use a public telephone system (cellular, land line or both) to transmit this data. En este caso, se trata de dispositivos ubicados "al costado de la vía", "a la orilla del ferrocarril", etc. que detectan vehículos u objetos extraños y mandan señales al tren informando sobre la seguridad de las vías. Por lo tanto, en ese contexto, recomiendo AL COSTADO DE LA VÍA, A LA ORILLA DE LA VÍA... (también VÍA DEL TREN, FERROCARRIL, LÍNEA FÉRREA, etc.) Saludos, Clarisa Moraña Reference: http://www.allwords.com/query.php?SearchType=3&goquery=Find+...
