BBCNews said:Network Rail is facing an unlimited fine after admitting health and safety breaches relating to the 1999 Ladbroke Grove rail crash that claimed 31 lives.
The company, formerly Railtrack, pleaded guilty to charges under the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974.
A Thames Trains train driven by Michael Hodder, 31, passed a red signal and hit a London-bound Great Western express.
Network Rail pleaded guilty to failing to ensure the signal was clearly visible from a sufficient distance.
At London's Blackfriars Crown Court Judge, Aidan Marron QC adjourned sentencing until 18 December when Network Rail will indicate the full basis of its guilty plea in writing.
More than 400 people were injured in the crash on 5 October, 1999.
Thames Trains and Railtrack were both criticised in a public inquiry report by Lord Cullen.
Thames Trains pleaded guilty to health and safety offences in relation to the 1999 crash and was fined £2m in April 2004.
