Abstract A rail crossover control system for a rail track section of a rail network is disclosed. The rail track section 5 has first and second rail tracks, a crossover track section extending between the first and second rail tracks, at least one first set of rail switches arranged to controllably determine whether a train continues on the first track or is diverted from the first track onto the 10 crossover track section, and at least one second set of rail switches arranged to controllably determine whether a train continues on the second track or is diverted from the second track onto the crossover track section. The system comprises at least one interlocking control unit 15 arranged to control the first and second sets of rail switches according to determined train routes, and an obstruction detector arranged to detect presence of an obstruction on the crossover track section and generate an obstruction signal when an obstruction is detected, the at 20 least one first set of rail switches is inoperative and the at least one second set of rail switches is operative. The interlocking control unit is arranged to prevent trains from traveling over the at least one second set of operative rail switches when the obstruction signal is 25 generated.
