Tendency to speed up and rationalize shunting operations at medium-to-small marshalling yards in same way as already accomplished at large yards is discussed; new hump interlocking capable of servicing up to 1000 cars in course of day is presented; same standard design is used as in modern route interlockings with geographical panels; interlocking is adaptable to different track configurations and requirements of hump yards; operating principle of interlocking program memory and automatic system is described, as well as its point switching and vehicle-detection indication facilities.
