It certainly is. Two of the tracks are just the running tracks on which the trains wheels run. The other 2 are for the supply current. The one in between the running tracks is set at -210 Vdc, whilst the fourth rail on the outside of the running tracks is set at +420 Vdc. This gives a potential difference of 630 Vdc which tube trains run at
It tells the driver that the depot shunting controller has set the track up for the correct destination and that the driver has permission to proceed into the depot
are you a driver

Great stuff, I enjoy driving the tube trains on BVE but obviously they are a lot different to the real thing!
