minus-squareFistingEnthusiast@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·3 days agoThere is usually a current present in the rails already Either traction current, signalling current for track circuits, or both Depending on the way the signalling system has been engineered
minus-squaresolidheron@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up1·3 days agoHmmm neat. I guess those are high voltage signals
minus-squareFistingEnthusiast@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·3 days agoDefinitely not Sometimes in the order of mere milivolts
