Good Morning!

	Probably a question for FWS3.......

	How did the impedance bond in the US&S signalling work?    How did it
allow ground to pass while blocking signal voltage?    Axles short out
low-voltage current to run signals, correct, which causes red board?   
Failure of the low-voltage current automatically set all signals red,
correct?
