Title :
Operations - the value of training simulators [railway signaller training]
Abstract :
Since the Cullen Report into the accident at Ladbroke Grove, there has been increased pressure to improve the training of railway signallers. The Railway Engineering Company has responded to this situation by providing comprehensive signaller training systems. These have been installed for all workstations at all the IECC installations on Network Rail. More recently, simulators have also been provided for other types of control centre such as the MCS provided by GE Transportation Systems and the WestCAD system provided by Westinghouse Rail Systems.
