Railroad experts have been concentrating recently on building safety
equipment, which was previously imported. All block-signal workshops are now
manufacturing mechanical and electromechanical safety signal equipment. which A prototype is being built of an electric signal safety system which will
be installed in a railroad station this year for testing,
