InterFlow is a communications based modular system that facilitates the control and automation of freight and country railway systems to a level suited to each unique application and customer demand.

The InterFlow concept is based on radio communication between the stationary control system and the locomotives. The system provides in cab information to the train driver and provides Automatic Train Protection. In case of driverless trains (in a mining application) the system communicates directly with the ATOIATP equipment.

This results in a cost effective system with minimal wayside equipment, reducing the initial investment cost as well as the operational maintenance. Apart from passive balises along the track and object controllers at each point-machine, allsystem components are in the control room or onboard the locomotives. Changes to the system are simplified as there is a minimum of wayside plant.
