Does anybody have any information on the workings of TCC consoles, the second generation of all-relay CTC technology? These machines were installed between the 50's and the late 60's when the first computer controlled CTC consoles were developed.
The TCC consoles are markedly different in both looks and operation from the classic "olive drab" CTC consoles as the dispatcher/operator is able to do all his work from his central console. The linear track layout is only for indication as it doesn't have any of the traditional levers and buttons.
Here is a photo with a C&O TCC:
