Thanks for this info! But more specifically I was referring to Safetran's (typo before) Geographic Signalling System (GEO) CTC system compared to General Electric Transportation System (GETS) CTC system. For example I have seen information that says that some control points are GETS-CTC while...

I have a general question about GO Transits signalling system. I have noticed that some control points within the CTC system are Safetrain GEO system while others are GETS. I'm wondering what the difference between the two systems, which is older, are they both microprosser solid state systems...
