La novedad de los sistemas basados en Moving Block [cantonamiento móvil] consiste en controlar la posición de todos los trenes de forma continua, de manera que la "ventana" de seguridad en la que un tren puede moverse, se desplaza de forma continua en función entre otras cosas, de la posición de los demás trenes de la línea. Las prestaciones del Moving Block combinadas con las funcionalidades del Sistema ATS (Supervisión Automática de Trenes), garantiza una respuesta rápida y eficaz a fluctuaciones en la demanda de viajeros y una reducción considerable en el intervalo de paso de los trenes. 2, record 3, Spanish, - supervisi%C3%B3n%20autom%C3%A1tica%20de%20trenes
