ISSUES FOR REMOTE & REGIONAL LINESMany remote & regional railways have similar operational issues, with:

• Vast remote infrastructure & seasonal impacts

• Very costly to install and then maintain remote field infrastructure

• Theft, vandalism and security almost impossible to manage

• Often need interfaces to mainline rail networks

• Remote & inhospitable locations with long staff travel times

• Expensive to retain skilled staff in remote areas

• Limited opportunities to increase revenue to off-set expensive installations; more immediate opportunities to improve bottom-line by reducing CAPEX and OPEX costs

OUTLINE

• The NSW Regional Network

• Productivity Achievements

• Interoperability approach to achieving cost reductions and improving operations

• Questions

Outsourced Railway Infrastructure Mgt

John Holland Rail

• JHR won tender to deliver rail network operations and all maintenance services for the NSW CRN from 16Jan12

• Expected revenue of $1.5 Billion over 10 years

• Manages 5,800 km of track across regional NSW for the NSW Government– 2,400 km of operational lines and 3,400 km of non-operational

lines.

– More than 400 employees

– Additional 27,000 hectares of land is under management,

– 600 rail under-bridges and 384 road bridges

• See http://www.jhrcrn.com.au/

Country Regional Network (CRN)

JHR operates and maintains the CRN for 10 years as a public Rail Infrastructure Manager (RIM)

4Tel has the technology Design, Construct and Maintenance role for the Network Mgt Centre (NMC)

Rail Vehicle Detection – 160 km

Train Order Working – 2,246 km

NMC Systems

Goal is Improved Safety & Productivity

• More comprehensive and timely data allows better decisions

• Accurate and timely tracking of trains, rail vehicles and staff improves safety

• Better data and better tracking improves operational decisions

• Better operational decisions give better business outcomes

PRODUCTIVITY ACHIEVEMENTS WITH IMPROVED INTEROPERABILITY

Many productivity improvements and operating efficiencies have been introduced

Real-Time Tracking Trains & Mobiles

Real-Time Train Performance

• Geographical real time view by comparing the Daily Working Time-Table to GPS location

• Delays are colour-coded

Real-Time Train Graphs

• Train graphs are created in real time by comparing the Daily Working Time-Table to GPS location

• Delay Codes can be added

Real-Time Train Running Table

• Performance tables can be created in real time by comparing the Daily Working Time-Table to GPS location

• Delay Codes and Colour-coding are displayed

Real-Time Signal Strength Tracking• Average line signal strength

can be established• Any variations can indicate

a problem with either the infrastructure or the locomotive

• Auto-Alarms can be established• History logs available for analysis• Maintenance can be more targeted

Real-Time Worksite Protection System

Web Browser View• Protect worksites with

beacons

• Security is very high

• Safety is about better info, training & procedures as well as technology

SO WHAT IS INTEROPERABILITY?

Is Interoperability Harmonisation?

• Harmonisation

– The preferred railway systems approach

– ‘One way’ lowers deployment risks

–Creates monopoly rents

– Stifles innovation

– Limits system integration

Interoperability is Different

• Interoperability

– Is demanding on standards & certification

–Promotes innovation

– Enables system integration

–Allows separation of complex system tasks

Interoperability Versus Harmonisation

INTEROPERABILITY MODELFOR RAIL SYSTEMS

Interoperability in Open Systems

1. Network connectivity

2. Methodology for describing data

3. Methodology for achieving security and operational integrity

Standardise Interfaces, not Systems

Provide system connectivity

Standardise Message Structure

Apply security settings, Encryption

System Interoperability

System Interoperability is expandable

Interoperable Data on the CRN

USE OF INTEROPERABILITY FOR RAIL SAFETY APPLICATIONS

Safety is an Application Layer Issue

• Digital systems work differently

• Safety is an app issue; not media or host!!

• Interfaces between Layers in a system

• Protocols between same Layers

• The Internet uses Open Systems standards

Interoperability is achieved via network connection interfaces

CONCLUSION

• Three core elements are needed to achieve interoperability between systems:– Methodology for network connections

– Methodology for describing data

– Methodology for achieving security and operational integrity

• Interoperability is NOT Harmonisation

• Benefits from interoperability are being realised for the Country Regional Network

• All systems can interoperate

• Create competition to reduce monopoly rents

• Simplifies individual product replacement

• Promote innovation

• Improve efficiency and effectiveness

• Reduce operating costs
