Why do signal failures happen?

09:19 , Nuray Bulbul

Train drivers can determine if it is safe to continue down the track through the use of railway signals, which are traffic light devices.

But they sometimes fail to work.

One of the most common causes of a signal failure is problems with track circuits and axle counters which are used to detect if a train is in a section.

A track circuit is a little current that flows between the tracks and trains. In order to determine if a section is clear for the following train, an axle counter counts the number of track wheels entering and exiting the section.
