Abstract
A method and apparatus for determining the occupancy status of a track section, in particular following a restart of an axle counting system, in which a counting-in axle counting point is provided at the start and a counting-out axle counting point is provided at the end of the track section. The occupancy status is determined by a comparison of the counting values currently ascertained by these axle counting points. The current counting value of the counting-in axle counting point and the current counting value of the counting-out axle counting point are stored following clearing of the track section. To determine the new occupancy status later, the values thus stored are called on together with the counting values current at the time.
