Expression is in ASCII and is evaluated at run time.

The "known variables" I referred to are values known at run time - they are,
in fact, the "occupied" / "unoccupied" state of tracks in a 7.5" railroad -
this logic is part of the signal system logic.

So: "(T1 & T2) | T3" evaluates to true if "Track 1 AND Track 2 are occupied,
OR Track 3 is occupied"

The expression is part of the configuration data loaded into the control
node at the time it is configured by the user.
