Question: ETTs in the PTC era
Author: mile250

Last week I finished my first term teaching Introduction to Railway Engineering to state university (mostly) civil engineering majors. To help them understand how the infrastructure fits into the bigger picture of traffic, rolling stock, and operations I showed examples of, and passed around, rule books and employee timetables that I had from past decades. For much of what I briefly covered on dispatching, communications, and signaling, I said "And this will all change with PTC" (though I realize PTC is generally being layered over previous systems, not replacing them).
So, can any TO folks provide --even images of a few pages-- ETTs that reflect PTC being in operation?

The diagonal shaded lines in the "Auth for Move" column denotes PTC in use.
