Controlling 12000-tonne trains of iron ore over Lamco's undulating 267-km line between Nimba and Buchanan in Liberia requires a high degree of precision to maintain stringent safety standards. With the possibility of annual movements exceeding the current figure of 13.5 million tonnes, it was felt that safety and operating flexibility could be improved by supplementing the existing CTC with automatic train control. Integra's ISR72 system provides speed supervision at passing loops and on open line where permanent or temporary speed restrictions are in force.
