RailComm adds TWC capabilities to Lake State Railroad's DOC® System
September 24, 2008 — Lake State Railroad Company (LSRC) in Saginaw, Michigan has incorporated RailComm's Track Warrant Control functionality into its existing Domain Operations Controller System (DOC®). Over the past two years, LSRC has dispatched trains within CTC territory by utilizing RailComm's state-of-the-art DOC® control system. With the seamless addition of the Track Warrant Control module, Lake State has achieved an integrated view of all train traffic within their controlled territory.
The DOC® software-based control system is an advanced command, control, communications and information (C3i) server-based platform that supports a wide variety of integrated solutions for indication, control, access and distribution of critical operational data across the corporate enterprise. The DOC® system is designed with built-in expansion capabilities to enable adding workstations, new functionality and additional controlled territory without interrupting operation of the current system. The system also includes Electronic Train Sheets. The train sheets are maintained by the system for a three year period, in accordance with FRA regulations.
