FIXED BLOCK RAILWAY SIGNALING SYSTEM An improved fixed-block railway signaling system comprises classical optical railway signals and radiofrequency identification (RFID) trackside transponder devices in two-way communication over a radio link with an on-board RFID communication device located inside a railway vehicle and coupled to a human-machine interface of said railway vehicle for displaying a corresponding duplicated railway signal. The on-board RFID device communication is also able to communicate wirelessly with a trackside unit operatively coupled with a level crossing controller to automatically initiate a closing sequence of the level crossing when the railway vehicle is approaching a level crossing.
