Scope
GB/T 8568-2013 is the English-translated version of 铁路行车组织词汇.
China's national vocabulary for train operation. Railway operating terminology is the most safety-critical vocabulary in transport, because it is the language in which movements are authorised: a signal aspect, a block section, a possession, a shunt movement and a wrong-direction working each mean one specific thing, and the entire safety of a railway rests on two people separated by distance and noise understanding the same words identically. It is also the vocabulary in which capacity and performance are expressed - headway, path, dwell, turnaround - which is what timetable planning and infrastructure investment are argued in. China runs the largest and most intensively used railway network in the world across several classes of operator, and this standard is what keeps their language common. It specifies the terminology of railway traffic organisation, and applies to the operations management, design, research, teaching and publishing of the national railways, joint-venture railways, local railways and industrial and mining dedicated railways.
