Abstract

A redundant rail cover and indicator system may include one or more rail and carriage failure indicator assemblies. Each assembly may include a failure indicator configured to identify when a primary sub-assembly fails and a rotational sub-assembly configured to rotate the failure indicator between a stowed and deployed position. When the primary sub-assembly fails, the rotational sub-assembly may be configured to cause the failure indicator to rotate between the stowed and deployed position. Each redundant rail cover assembly may include an actuatable cover and a cover actuation sub-assembly configured to actuate the cover between a stowed and deployed position. When in the stowed position, the cover may be configured to substantially cover the secondary rail. When the primary sub-assembly fails, the cover actuation sub-assembly may be configured to cause the cover to actuate between the stowed and deployed position.
