The answer is that the line is fitted with TPWS as well as the
LUL trainstop system. At each signal, there is a TPWS loop and a
trainstop.
I thought there might be something like that. I'm also guessing
that it would be illegal to have tracks not equipped with some sort
of redundant saftey system in potential revenue service.
I thought TPWS was installed on a risk-of-SPADs basis, so not on all
stretches of all passengers lines?
That is correct, in fact a number of TPWS installations are being removed as
some overkill occured during the original fitting.
