The Central Railway has commissioned the block proving by axle counter (BPAC) system in the Vasind-Asangaon section of Mumbai Division.
The BPAC system plays a pivotal role in maintaining the utmost safety of train operations.
Specifically, it meticulously examines the last vehicle of a section, subsequently confirming the section’s clearance before granting authorization for another train to enter.
Earlier, the BPAC system was exclusively deployed up to Vashind railway station within the Kalyan-Igatpuri section.
