1. The Traditional Approach to Designing
Railway Control Systems

Early railway engineering led by invention of

new devices
Developments driven by technology
Railways were the high-tech field of the age
Railways were engineering led

This useful looking device is an early

version of an ERTMS beacon.

1. The Traditional Approach to Designing
Railway Control Systems

Railways grew and

organisations developed
General Manager

Engineering Departments
Operating Dept. Chief Engineers Dept Admin Dept
became specialised
Each Engineering
Rolling Stock Engineer Civil Engineer Signal Engineer Department had specialist
experts
Traditional departmentalised structure Equipment became more
specialised and staffed by
experts in their own fields

13 Invensys proprietary & confidential Invensys 31 July, 2017

1. The Traditional Approach to Designing
Railway Control Systems - Problems

Traditional specialist disciplines

do not align with overall
functionality requirements
Traditional architecture requires
interface control between
disparate systems
Traditional architecture imposes
constraints on total system
response

2. Reasons for Higher Levels of Automation

Increased levels of safety -

particularly during emergencies and
failures

Diagnose and Maintenance

improvement

Cost saving and prestige

15 Invensys proprietary & confidential Invensys 31 July, 2017

2. Reasons for Higher Levels of Automation
increased Safety
DURING NORMAL OPERATION

Observing the Guideway -

automatic obstacle
detection and intrusion
detection.
Passenger Transfer -
passenger door control
and platform edge
detection.
Platform screen doors are one method of
Train status management enhancing safety.

2. Reasons for Higher Levels of Automation
increased Safety
DURING EMERGENCIES AND FAILURES
Detection and Management
of Hazardous Situations
Train diagnostics
Fire and smoke detection and
management
Emergency Handling
terrorism, earthquake
(including automated
Understanding the incident enables evacuation announcements)
accurate and appropriate action.

2. Reasons for Higher Levels of Automation
Maintenance Support

Self-diagnose of hardware and

communications status
Registration and
reconstruction (replay) of all
sequences of all events
Remote implementation of
- software upgrades
- tests
- changes in layout
2. Reasons - Cost improvement and
prestige
Specialist Disciplines do not align with overall functionality
requirements f.i., response to tunnel fire:
Position of trains and service reorganisation (ATS)
Tunnel ventilation fans (EMS)
Isolation of traction power (Power SCADA)
Closure of stations (BMS)
Public Announcements (PA)
Situation Monitoring (CCTV)
In an integrated system these functions can be
heavily automated to avoid
overloading control room staff

 3. Benefits of Integrated System
Approach

Use of one integrated

control system simplifies
complex interfaces
It ensures a co-ordinated
response to emergency
situations
It ensures that all relevant
information is available in
one location the OCC
Reduced Initial Investment
Accommodates Business
Expansion
Integrated systems provide the management of information
from corporate HQ to stations.
 3. Benefits of Integrated System
Approach

Increased Operational Efficiency

Reduced Operator Error
Increased Multi-skilling of
Operators and Maintenance Staff
Efficient incident management
Reduced Time-to-Clear an
Incident
Simplified Operator Work
Environment A common look & feel operator interface for
all sub-systems can provide many benefits.
Reduced maintenance costs

underground stations

Unmanned operation

Completed for 2010 Winter

Olympics

Total system integration was the

requirement for this greenfield project.
5. Implications for the System Purchaser

Higher levels of automation benefit from a careful definition

of the required functionality for the control system
The functionality needs to consider both normal and
emergency operation
The definition of functionality should be considered
independently of the traditional engineering disciplines
There are diagnostic & maintenance advantages in using an
integrated control system which controls all relevant system
elements.
Need to take into account legal regulations external
consultants with integrating experience might be helpful
6. Summary

The traditional approach of separate engineering disciplines

being designed by their own experts has been successful for
traditional railways.
Railways with higher levels of automation need to exploit that
automation to derive Safety and Maintenance improvements.
Using traditional methods of design for these non-traditional
railways is very likely to result in sub-optimum systems.
Using an integrated control system approach, covering all the
traditional disciplines, will deliver a system with superior
performance at a lower cost.
