There is an arguement that TPWS is a form of non-continuous ATP. However, it is not fail safe, i.e. it loses power, it will not trip the train.

Both the GWML and Chilterns use a form of non-continuous ATP but that system is fail safe and can be modified to improve the track-track reception frequency by adding additional loops etc.
