Improving the reliability and availability of railway track switching by analysing historical failure data and introducing functionally redundant subsystems

Track switches are safety critical assets that not only provide flexibility to rail networks but also present single points of failure. Switch failures within dense-traffic passenger rail systems cause a disproportionate level of delay. Subsystem redundancy is one of a number of approaches, which ca...
