Abstract

Railway point machines divert trains between two alternative routes. The current monitoring system used by UK railways gives an indirect measurement of only the machine’s front drive force.

This situation causes delay in finding faulty components and in predicting failure, which leads to train delays and financial loss. More measurements means a faster, more accurate response.
