1927: Dispatcher Control on the New York Central
In 1927 remote control of interlockings was brought into use between Berwick
and Toledo on the N.Y.C. This was the first installation of what was later
to be universally known as CTC - Centralized Traffic Control. The dispatcher
control had been developed by the General Railway Signal Co, and used the
unit-wire or one-wire system, i e one wire was required between the dispatchers
office and each switch (plus a common return wire).
