Integrated control room - Why (?) ...2

What is the controller supposed to do?– Pass on correct information to station masters for safe & efficient train

operation

– Ensure trains run as per time table

– Handle deviations in timetable factoring in unusual events/accidents.

– Quick decision making to optimize line capacity

– Ensure that ASMs execute Control Room instructions

What he really does?– Imagine the current condition in mind

– Keeps updating his own picture in mind by taking fresh inputs from station masters.

– Keeps filling arrival/departure time for trains at major stations

– In times of emergency, decision-making takes time – limitations of latest information about the event

Major benefits from the project

Real time information on train traffic available on Projection screens and also on Controllers workstations– Nothing is left for imagination since updated information is available

leading to safety enhancement.

Controller now ‘CONTROLS’ the traffic instead of recording and working the phones

Failure analysis based on Log & replay facility

Generation of MIS reports – Train Control Charts, Punctuality reports, Train Graphs and Failure reports

Multi-pronged communication facilitates better handling of unusual incidents– Motorman/guard to control room

– Motorman to motorman

– Motorman to guard

Major benefits from the project (passengers)

Then– Passengers waited on FOB to find which train would come first

– Passengers had information about only single train per platform

– Occasional errors in making announcements

Now– Passengers now know when their train is arriving (Expected in Minutes)

– Multi-level dissemination of train information• Indicators on platforms

• VDUs on strategic station locations

• Multi-lingual voice announcements

– Information about next 2 trains per platform

– Automatic announcements ensure timely and correct information

– Better forecasting is possible
