BVE: Common Abbreviations

[TomBeevers2000]

RE: Common Abbreviations

Two more tubey ones :-

AFC = Automatic Fare Collection
UTS = Underground Ticketing System

T'Op = Train Operator (driver of an OPO train)
OPO = One Person Operation
OMO = One Man Operation (used in 1970's - 80's, now withdrawn - probarbly because it is PI?)
DOO = Driver Only Operation (the NR term for OPO)

Additionally any LU signals with F in front controll a floodgate.
EXEPT when it is FR which is Fog Repeater.
