The in count of axles at advanced starter signal of the sending end station and out count at home signal of receiving end station provides a check of complete arrival of a train and proves block clearance automatically. It has been experienced that provision of block proving by axle counter not only enhances safety but also increases line capacity. 2, record 1, English, - block%20proving

[Dans le cas] d’appareils de sécurité ou de réglage à action indirecte, à fonctionnement par «tout ou rien», [...] le terme différentiel s’applique à l'écart entre les températures(ou pressions) d’enclenchement et de déclenchement, cet écart pouvant être fixe [...] ou réglable. Un système à différentiel implique [...] l'existence de deux contacts(ou positions) de commande ou d’impulsion(marche-arrêt, enclenchement-déclenchement, etc.) entre lesquels il existe une sorte de point mort, une zone «inactive». C'est l'intervalle entre les deux valeurs, minimale et maximale, provoquant l'action des contacts respectifs, qui s’appelle le différentiel. 3, record 7, French, - diff%C3%A9rentiel
