	Central Line Signalling
		The code transmitted in the block is based on the state of the line ahead.
		A few signals remain installed on the Central Line, mostly at the end of station platforms; the location of the signal is always the start of a block section.
		In normal operation with a clear line the ATO will calculate the point at which it will need to brake for the next stop; it will then drive the train as fast as possible to this point while remaining within the speed limit given by the code being picked up.

		The Central Line is a line of the London Underground and coloured red on the tube map.
		A Central Line train derailed at Chancery Lane on January 25, 2003, injuring 32 passengers, after a traction motor became detached from the train and fell onto the track.
		The entire line was closed whilst the cause of the failure was determined and appropriate modifications made to the trains.

	Central venous catheter - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Central venous catheters usually remain in place for a longer period of time, especially when the reason for their use is longstanding (such as total parenteral nutrition in a chronically ill patient).
		For such indications, a Hickman line, a PICC line or a portacath may be considered because of their smaller infection risk.
		Pneumothorax (for central lines placed in the chest) - this is why doctors routinely order a chest X-ray after insertion of a subclavian or internal jugular line.

	London Underground - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Stock on sub-surface lines is identified by a letter (such as A Stock, used on the Metropolitan Line), while tube stock is identified by the year in which it was designed (for example, 1996 Stock, used on the Jubilee Line).
		Lines of both types usually emerge onto the surface outside the central area, except being the Victoria Line, which is in tunnel except for its depot, and the very short Waterloo and City Line which has no non-central part and no surface section.
		The lack of lines in south London is sometimes attributed to the geology of that area, the region being almost one large aquifer; additionally, it is impossible for cut and cover lines to go under the River Thames.

	CULG - Central Line
		The Central London Railway was formed in 1891 to build a tube railway along the east-west axis of London, connecting the western suburbs to the City.
		The through lines joined on to the east and west sides of the loop, with the loop platform in between; since the loop ran anticlockwise, right-hand running was in use from there to a flyover at Wood Lane Junction where the link met the EandSB.
		The line runs in tube from west of Leyton to east of White City; at Stratford the lines use the main line station on viaduct and at Mile End it rises to the level of the District Line cut-and-cover station to offer cross-platform interchange.

		A central venous access catheter is a tube like structure that has its tip placed into a large central vein (the Superior Vena Cava) or heart (right atrium).

	Institute for Healthcare Improvement: Central Line Bundle Compliance
		The percentage of intensive care unit (ICU) patients with central lines for whom all five elements of the Central Line Bundle are documented on the daily goals sheet and/or central line insertion checklist or patient's medical record.
		For example, if there are 7 patients with central lines, and 6 have all five bundle elements completed then there is 86 percent (6 divided by 7) compliance with the Central Line Bundle.
		Incorporating the five elements of the Central Line Bundle into a central line insertion checklist and a daily goals sheet, and reviewing lines daily during multidisciplinary rounds, allows for easy review of bundle compliance.

	[No title]
		Central means that the line is in a large enough vein, in the central circulation, that it’s safe to deliver drugs that might not be safe if given through smaller peripheral ones.
		Once the line is in what ought to be the right position, which varies with the size of the patient, it’s sutured to the skin with a little tabbed flag thing.
		Placing the line over the wire is simple enough if the line is a single lumen introducer, but if a multilumen line is being used, it pays to remember that the line is going to have to pass through the distal opening — the one at the tip-end of the catheter.
