Two of the largest and most complex resignalling schemes yet undertaken are in progress on BR's Southern Region. When completed at Clapham Junction in 1984 and Three Bridges in 1987, two signalboxes will control 888 track-km over which 1800 daily trains carrying 200000 passengers weave a complex pattern of regular-interval services. Although the schemes involve replacement of signalling and some track, the objective of such compehensive renewal is to improve train regulation through the enlargement of control areas. At the same time data provided by the train describer will widen Southern Region's plans to generate train running reports and passenger information automatically by comparing the actual situation with a stored timetable.
