    Length of platform

    Hi, everyone I am confused that the length of the platform is necessary to design to cover the whole length of the train (locomotive+carriage) or just cover only the carriage? for example, if the station was built to accommodate 12 car train formation, the operated train is 2 electric...

    Reliability centred maintenance

    Thank you and if the currently service delay 20% , 30% of the cause of delay due to the failure of rolling stock, and establish RCM can reduce reliability issue 25% , how much of PPM increase? I think that is 0.25*0.3*20 = 1.5% is correct?

    Reliability centred maintenance

    Thank you, and if I said that the RCM can reduce reliability issue 25%, it can be implied that PPM level is improved up to 25% ?

    Reliability centred maintenance

    Hi, everyone I would like to ask you that how the establishment of reliability centred maintenance for rolling stock (RCM) can improve the Public Performance Measure (PPM) ?

    Signalling maintenance cost

    Hi, everyone I would like to ask you that in the UK, what is the proportion of responsibility for the cost of signalling system maintenance between TOCs and Network Rail? In addition, the signalling maintenance cost is combined with the fixed track access charge or the variable track access...

    Shape of tunnel

    hello everyone, could you recommend the suitable shape of the railway tunnel to allow the train on double track dive under another train on above ground?

    gradient for tunnel and method to build the tunnel

    Yes, your thought is correct. I consider on the tunnel for the train dives under the above-ground railway.

    gradient for tunnel and method to build the tunnel

    Thank you, yes, I am not a native speaker. This post, it means the underpass tunnel.

    gradient for tunnel and method to build the tunnel

    Thank you, if I use gradient 1 in 50 for the underpass , is it possible? and what is the minimum height between the top of an underpass to above ground?

    gradient for tunnel and method to build the tunnel

    Hello, everyone I am a student and now studying in tunnel construction. I have some question as the following; - How much-recommended slope for access and egress and height of tunnel for the train with 125 mph of speed? - Could you recommend the method the build the tunnel for the double track?
