Japanese term

旅客指令

Japanese to English Tech/Engineering Telecom(munications) Digitalization of train wireless systems
I am unable to understand what 旅客指令means.

The sentence goes as follows.

指令員が列車の運転士に対して運転・旅客指令電話による通話を行う機能。

Thanks in advance.

Operator in charge of passenger-related matters

I know it's a mouthful, but what it means is that there is a 指令所, a command base inside which different 指令員 (operators) work. Each operator is in charge of different matters (communications, equipment, etc.) and two of them are, therefore, the 運転指令員 and the 旅客指令員. The assumption is that each of them has a separate line (電話 in this case) to speak with the driver. Check the link for more information on what the 旅客指令員 does.
