RailComm marks Blue Flag Indicator use
Written by William C. Vantuono, Editor-in-ChiefFairport, N.Y.-based RailComm said Monday a “major western railroad” has added RailComm’s Blue Flag Indicator (BFI) System. The system allows users to apply blue flag protection to fueling tracks through the use of centrally located field control panels.
Six (6) BFIs have been installed and are positioned in pairs at three (3) different locations along their track. RailComm’s 2.4 GHz RADiANT™ spread-spectrum data radios are utilized to provide reliable and secure communication between the field and control locations.
