Train Operations

This Train Operations webinar from the RSSB takes place on Thursday 14 December 2023.

In the aftermath of the Ladbroke Grove rail crash in 1999, the industry saw an increase in train protection equipment with the introduction of Train Protection and Warning System (TPWS). However, further investment is needed in newer technology to reduce the SPAD rate and prevent overspeeding.

This webinar will cover:

• The importance of corporate memory by reflecting and learning from past SPAD/Overspeeding incidents.
• The chance to hear about findings from a new research article that drivers are presently performing above/in-line with their capabilities.
• An overview of SPAD Risk Subgroup (SPAD RSG), SPAD data from the last 12 months and the products that they have produced for industry to use – including a live SPAD Self-Evaluation Tool Version 2 demo.
• A call to the audience that to gain a better understanding of overspeeding, data collection must improve.
