ABSTRACT:
A signaling circuit adapted to be used with railroad tracks or the like for ensuring fail-safe performance in respect to the operation of a control device, such as a track relay, which must function in a fail-safe manner, typically to become deenergized after a set period and to release or drop away when any emergency or failure occurs; thereby to produce a safe action, such as providing a warning signal to the engineer or operator of a train. The signaling circuit includes a quick-acting shunt detector which operates to detect short-duration shunting effects and functions to so extend or enhance them that they produce the desired result of releasing the track relay.
