HC Deb 19 May 1947 vol 437 c206W
88. Mr. Sparks

asked the Minister o:: Transport what experiments are being carried out with radiolocation devices as an aid to greater mobility in times of fog and darkness in relation to railway trans port operations.

Mr. Barnes

This matter has been under investigation for some time. Present known devices, however, are less suitable for this purpose than existing methods such as continuous track circuiting, automatic train control, and colour light signalling. Research is being continued.
