Abstract :
Railways are expected to operate with ever increasing levels of availability, reliability, safety and security. One way of ensuring high levels of dependability is through the use of condition monitoring systems. This paper presents initial results from operational trials of track circuit condition monitoring equipment installed at two TI21 audio frequency track circuits in the UK.
