This de-energizes the relay coils, break-ing the connection to ground at the relay while a current is passingthrough the low-resistance shunt caused by the car bridging thecrossing contact. Thus any arcing at relay contact points is ob-viated. Fourth—Leaving the highway crossing, the car makes two finalcontacts at the remote end of the block. The first (or inner) con-tact sends an impulse to the contact connected with the armatureof the second (right-hand) relay; thence through the winding ofthe coils, the resistance, the lights, and the bell, to the trolle
