CS-ATC
Automatic train control (ATC) is a general class of train protection systems for railways that involves a speed control mechanism in response to external inputs.

ATC can also be used with automatic train operation (ATO) and is usually considered to be the safety-critical part of a railway system. There have been numerous different safety systems referred to as "automatic train control" over time.
