This paper describes the in-cab signalling systems used on Eurostar trains. It categorizes them in terms of their function as basic signal repetition systems (AWS, BRS and TBL1), beacon-based speed supervision systems (KVB and TBL2) and continuous in-cab signalling systems (TVM) and reviews their relative merits. The aim of the paper is to enable the reader to recognize the three generic groups of in-cab signalling systems and understand the philosopy behind the systems within each group.
