This is a track circuit built on the "fail-safe principle" whereby any break in a wire or the rail is intended, by design, to result in a safe state. The first track circuit was developed by Dr. William Robinson, and patented in the US in 1870. However, this was not fail-safe, and Dr. Robinson modified it to be a fail-safe design in 1872. A track circuit provides a continuous electrical circuit through the railroad rails to both sense a train and sense a break in the rails. This in turn controls railway signals and interfaces with other railway equipment to provide safe train operation.

In cities what indicates it is safe to cross a railroad track?
In cities, it is safe to cross a railroad track when there are clear signals indicating that trains are not approaching, such as green lights or absence of flashing warning lights. Additionally, the presence of a stop sign, a pedestrian crossing sign, or audible warnings like bells can also indicate safety. Always ensure that the area is free of oncoming trains and that it is permissible to cross before proceeding. Caution is essential, as conditions can change rapidly.
