To enhance safety on the Howrah-Dhanbad route, the Indian Railways has implemented the Multi-Section Digital Axle Counter (MSDAC) technology. This advanced technology helps detect the presence or absence of trains on tracks by counting the axles (wheels) of trains entering and leaving each section. It provides vital data, improving train operations...

and minimizing the risk of signaling failures. In the first phase, this technology has been approved for implementation at nine stations in the Asansol Railway Division, including Kulti, Barakar, Kumardubi, Mugma, Thaparnagar, Kalubathan, Chhota Ambana, Basukinath, and Dumka. The total estimated cost of this project is ₹23.41 crore. An additional project worth ₹44.59 crore has also been approved for implementing dual-mode MSDAC in block sections between Khana-Andal and Sitarampur-Chhota Ambona, further enhancing the reliability of the automatic block signaling system. The MSDAC system improves safety by accurately detecting train positions, and its digital nature makes it reliable even during adverse weather conditions, unlike traditional signaling systems that can malfunction during heavy rain due to water logging on tracks. The implementation of MSDAC at the nine Asansol division stations is underway, with no specific timeframe yet set. Another project to implement dual-mode MSDAC in block sections between Khana-Andal and Sitarampur-Chhota Ambona is yet to commence.

Is project ki total estimated cost ₹23.41 crore hai. Ek aur project bhi approve hua hai jiska cost ₹44.59 crore hai. Ismein Khana-Andal aur Sitarampur-Chhota Ambona ke beech block sections mein dual-mode MSDAC ko implement kiya jaayega. Ye automatic block signaling system ki reliability ko aur bhi badhayega. MSDAC system, train ki position ko accurately detect karke safety ko improve karta hai. Ye digital technology hai, isliye ye adverse weather conditions mein bhi reliable hota hai, unlike traditional signaling systems jo heavy rain mein track pe water logging hone ki wajah se malfunction kar sakte hain. Nau Asansol division stations pe MSDAC ka implementation shuru ho chuka hai, lekin abhi koi timeframe set nahi hai. Khana-Andal aur Sitarampur-Chhota Ambona ke beech block sections mein dual-mode MSDAC ka implementation abhi shuru nahi hua hai.
