What IS the current state of the ASW deactivation? Is it that
broad-gauge ASW is being/has been/will be returned to train orders while
the standard gauge will retain it? 

And while on that subject: You talk about ASW, I thought the official
name is SAW (even though it was ASW before it was SAW). Does your usage
of the "old" acronym imply that people still prefer it, perhaps because
they can still think of it as Alternative TO Safe Working rather than
the nominal name with the "to" missing?
