Hallo, ich habe diesen Metallblock in einem Bahnhof in Friborg mit Strom angeschlossen. Ich habe mich gefragt, ob jemand wusste, was es ist und was es benutzt. Meine Vermutung wäre, den Zug vielleicht zu erkennen, wenn er am Bahnhof ist, um Informationen an die CFF zu senden, wie für Verzögerungen und dergleichen. Was denken Sie ?

r/drehscheibe is your best bet for questions like that
But your assumption about reporting delays is 100% wrong, all trains are tracked by other means anyways. If they would relay on simple contact switches to know where trains are at they would be traveling with 15km/h max.
It’s an Eurobalise, currently cancelled with the metal plate. Maybe they are doing work on the system or it’s not yet operational.
They are used to transmit track information to the train’s security system like the next signal position and state, speed restriction, etc.
