Re: Amtrak - PTC

I acknowledge SP5103's better description of PTC below. It still will prevent mainly train-on-train collisions, and derailments from causes that are under the control of the railroad. Derailments and other accidents stemming from external causes, not under the railroad's operating control, will still occur, as well as those from on-train mechanical failures like broken wheels/axles.
