En règle générale, lorsqu'un aiguilleur trace un itinéraire, c'est dans l'intention de faire passer un seul train. Dans ce cas, il trace l'itinéraire en DA [destruction automatique] à l'issue du passage du train, cet itinéraire est détruit automatiquement. Il arrive parfois que l'aiguilleur ait à faire passer une succession de trains sur le même itinéraire. Dans ces conditions, il est plus pratique de commander son itinéraire en TP [tracé permanent]. Il n’ y a pas destruction automatique de l'itinéraire derrière chaque train. 3, record 1, French, - destruction%20automatique%20d%27un%20itin%C3%A9raire
