ABSTRACT:
A automatic train control system (ATCS) in which a driverless vehicle is reset remotely upon detection of a failure in an on-board controller. If the direction of the train has not changed, and none of the train doors were opened, during the time the train was disabled due to the failure, the train is controlled to resume automatic operation.
