RAILROADS AND PROCESS SAFETY (3) We continue our series to do with the potential for applying process safety principles to rail transportation. In this post at https://lnkd.in/e7_QantW we consider the fact that trains are in the public domain, that the contents of the cars are usually at ambient temperature, and the challenges faced by emergency services.

If Safety Integrity Levels were superheroes, who would be SIL 3? 🦸♂️ What even is a Safety Integrity Level? It's a hidden metric determining how reliable and fault-tolerant safety systems must be. Think of it like a superhero rating for railway safety systems Daniel explores in his blog SIL what it is, what it isn't, and why our tech is like Iron Man's Jarvis, offering insight, but leaving the decisions to Iron Man. Read the blog and share your SIL Superhero list below.👇 Where would the Incredible Hulk Rank? https://lnkd.in/eC89rReV #Rail #Railway #RailwayIndustry #SIL #SafetyIntegrityLevels #RailSafety

"Over 40 years of proven excellence – offering extensive experience and knowledge in railroad track maintenance, construction, as well as innovative engineering designs and tools."
The other day, someone inquired about my constant companion, the spike maul. I explained its crucial role in guaranteeing safety and efficiency as a dedicated track inspector. Subsequently, the individual thanked me, admitting they hadn't grasped its significance before. Now armed with a maul, he / him recently uncovered a safety issue they had missed previously. I replied, "You're welcome, my railroad young friend!" And yes, I also showcased my capability to walk and inspect an impressive 10 miles before lunch, aided by the universal track gauge handle add to the handle held track gauge . #RailroadInnovation #FreightFriday #TrackGaugeRevolution #XLevelAdvantage #Railway #Training #Transportation #Development #TrackDesign #ConstructionManagement #RailroadEngineering #ProjectManagement #RailwayDesign #TransportationEngineering #RailwayConstruction #CivilEngineering #RailroadInfrastructure #TrackMaintenance #RailTransport #RailwayOperations #StructuralEngineering #GeotechnicalEngineering #FRARegulations #RailSafety #Class1Railroads #Certification #RailwayStandards #TrackInspection #RailroadMaintenance #SafetyStandards #TransportationSafety #RailwayDesignStandards #FRACompliance #RailwayMaintenance #RailwayInfrastructureDesign #TrackSafety #RailroadOperations #CertifiedTrainer #RailwaySafety #FRAStandards #Class1Railways #Aldon #Logistics #Infrastructure #Engineering #Technology #Management #LinkedIn #Strategy #Innovation #TrackInspection #Leadership #RailwaySolutions #Productivity #Experience #AdvancedManufacturing #SPOTLIGHT #Rail #Railways #RailAwards #Awards #RailExcellence #RailInnovation #RailProject #Innovation #Project #RollingStock #RailInfrastructure #RightTime #Railroads #Networking #Events #TCNY #RailIndustry #TruckingIndustry #Intermodal #Freight #ShippingIndustry #MaritimeIndustry #LogisticsCompany #Logistics #Transportation #OceanShipping #OceanFreight #SupplyChain #SafetyTraining #SafetyFirst #Teamwork

Collaboration and best practice are the cornerstones of progress in the light rail sector. During a recent workshop, engineers across the UK network discussed track welding improvements. Led by the Light Rail Engineering Group's Chair, Marilena Papadopoulou, the workshop included updates from the networks, the Office of Rail and Road (ORR), the Light Rail Safety & Standards Board, the Rail Accident Investigation Branch and a presentation by Chris McKeown. By adopting best practice across the sector, welding failures in embedded grooved track can be avoided, reducing the risk of costly repairs and service disruption. Phillip Terry MSc MIET, UKTram Lead Engineer, explained: “Correctly, and to standard, welded grooved track is essential for the safe and efficient running of any light rail network. ''The meeting provided an ideal opportunity for sector professionals and industry leads to share best practice and discuss guidance. ''This is especially important where procurement occurs outside the operator or maintainer remit.” Properly welded grooved tracks are vital for safety and efficiency. This kind of knowledge-sharing ensures that our tramways remain safe and reliable for all passengers.

Ensuring compliance, innovation and efficiency with longstanding expertise in the Rail, Infrastructure & Tech Sectors
Every month, we take a moment to shine a spotlight on the remarkable roles that keep the wheels of our industry turning. This time, we're diving into the world of Engineering Supervisors, a role that deserves not just recognition but a standing ovation. An Engineering Supervisor isn't just a title; they are the rule book of the railway, the guiding hand that ensures everything operates like a well-oiled machine. From setting up a work site to sending teams to isolate the traction current to handing it back to the PICOP, Engineering Supervisors are the backbone of safety and efficiency. They're responsible for issuing permits, briefing COSSs, and making sure all the i's are dotted and t's are crossed. But that's not all. They also take charge of the plant and equipment, which might include track-mounted vehicles or MEWPs (Mobile Elevated Work Platforms). It's their duty to ensure that everyone is in the right place at the right time and, most importantly, that they're doing it safely. In the world of railways, where precision and safety are paramount, the role of an Engineering Supervisor is far from easy. It's a challenging and crucial position that keeps our railways on track. So, let's give a big shout-out to the Engineering Supervisors out there. #engineeringsupervisors #safety #railway #networkrail
