Staying on time

Keeping SBB's trains and thus its passengers and its customer's freight on time involves managing a wide variety of possible problems - and solutions - of which the following are only a few examples:

Rush hour
Fog
Failure of a train
False "occupied" status for a track section
Managing recovery from a disruption
