Answer Question

1 Answer - Sort by: Date | Rating

    The electric key token has originated from the electric train tablet system that was initially created in the year 1880 by Tyer & Co in collaboration with the Caledonian Railway. Its functional use was fairly simplistic. It basically consisted of an instrument at all ends of block section, interlocked electrically. It was possible to only withdraw one tablet at a time. It was provided to the driver as an authoritative symbol.  

    This system was religiously followed by the electric train Staff of the year 1888. In the year 1912, the Great Western Railway created the electric key token that made use of a token that was smaller in size.

    The Bluebell makes use of Key Token Instruments from Sheffield Park and Horsted Keynes.
