IMechE 2018 Article reuse guidelines: infrastructure required to mitigate sagepub.com/journals-permissions DOI: 10.1177/0954409718809204 delays from operating combinations journals.sagepub.com/home/pif of normal and over-length freight trains on single-track railway lines in North America C Tyler Dick , Ivan Atanassov, F Bradford Kippen III and Darkhan Mussanov Abstract Distributed power locomotives have facilitated longer heavy-haul freight trains that improve the efficiency of railway operations. In North America, where the majority of mainlines are single track, the potential operational and economic advantages of long trains are limited by the inadequate length of many existing passing sidings (passing loops). To alleviate the challenge of operating trains that exceed the length of passing sidings, railways preserve the mainline capacity by extending passing sidings. However, industry practitioners rarely optimize the extent of infrastructure investment for the volume of over-length train traffic on a particular route. This paper investigates how different combinations of normal and over-length trains, and their relative lengths, relate to the number of siding extensions necessary to mitigate the delay performance of over-length train operation on a single-track rail corridor. The experiments used Rail Traffic Controller simulation software to determine train delay for various combinations of short and long train lengths under different directional distributions of a given daily railcar throughput volume. Simulation results suggest a relationship between the ratio of train lengths and the infrastructure expansion required to eliminate the delay introduced by operating over- length trains on the initial route.

    MÁV Central Rail and Track Inspection Ltd. PATER TRACK DIAGNOSTIC EXPERT SYSTEM Besides the knowledge of quality the safe and economical maintenance of railway tracks plays an increasingly impor- tant role these days. The „PATER” track diagnostic ex- pert software is intended to fulfil this task. PATER is a computer program that keeps records of rail- way tracks, monitors their condition and performs mainte- nance planning duties. Its purpose is to assist track mainte- nance professionals in managing the data of the technical and measurement systems, presenting the condition of the track, planning track maintenance jobs depending on track conditions, selecting the appropriate technology and per- forming cost estimates. Rail defects revealed by various inspections This is a client-server based program that ensures that data and their qualification stored in the database can be accessed from anywhere and client users can use them through the internet in case of sufficient authorisation. This model makes it possible that all data is stored and updated in one location therefore the data available to users is always up-to-date. In the engineering practice the val- ues of the isolated defects and gen- eral qualifying indices are analyzed and these values are sufficient to judge the traffic safety and quality. Nowadays we use track geometri- cal, vehicle dynamical, ultrasonic, Space and time based graphical analysis Head Checking, rail profile and rail of track geometry data corrugation measuring devices. The PATER program adapts to the re- quirements of any railway company: unlimited new measuring system, parameter, measuring limit etc. can be integrated quickly and easily.

  • Track Geometry
    Track Geometry Track Geometry Cost effective track maintenance and operational safety requires accurate and reliable track geometry data. The Balfour Beatty Rail Digital Track Geometry System is a combined hardware and software application that derives track geometry parameters compliant with EN 13848-1:2003 and is an enhanced version of the original BR and LU systems, with a rationalised transducer layout using modern sensor technology. The system can be installed on a variety of vehicles, from dedicated test trains, service vehicles and road rail plant. Unlike some systems, our solution is designed such that voids and other vertical track defects are identified through the wheel/rail interface when the track is fully loaded. The compromise of taking measurements away from the wheel could produce under-measurement of voided track with an error that increases the further the measurement point is away from the influences of the wheel. The system uses bogie mounted non-contacting inertial sensors complemented by an optional image based sub-system, to measure rail vertical and lateral displacement. The system is designed to operate over a speed range of approx. 5 to 160 mph (8-250km/h). However, safety critical parameters such as gauge and twist will function at zero. Geometry parameters are calculated in real time and during operation real time exception and statistical reports are generated. Principal measurements consist of: • Twist • Dynamic Cross-level • Cant and Cant deficiency • Vertical Profile • Alignment • Curvature • Gauge • Dipped Joints • Cyclic Top Vehicle Ride Measurement As an accredited testing organisation we are well versed in capturing and processing acceleration measurements to national/international standards in order to obtain Ride Quality information in accordance with, for example ENV 12299 “Railway applications – Ride comfort for passengers – Measurement and Evaluation”.
