The last decade has seen the development of the European Train Control System ERTMS/ETCS. This Automatic Train Protection system (ATP) was designed in three versions: ETCS_Level 1, 2 and 3. ETCS_Level_3 uses moving blocks and provides short headways. However, ETCS_Level 2 may also offer short headways provided suitable block sections' length.
