First system due into Romford ROC will be the Thameside area signalling control due to be re-controlled from Upminster IECC under the TMS 1st Deployment during Q3 2016 (slipped from Xmas 2015). This will be the second live UK TMS 'interfaced' system (the first shortly preceding it: Newport for...
The de-scoped Traffic Management for Thameslink (+ additional LNE & SE options) has today officially been awarded to Hitachi Rail Europe (HRE).
NR Media Centre - HRE awarded Thameslink TM contract
My News Desk - HRE wins first TM contract in UK
Railway Gazette - Thameslink TM contract...
These signals will be renamed TL2213 & TL2213CA in the imminent HL07 stageworks of Thameslink KO2 development.
The 12 car stop board is right beneath the main signal (on the latest scheme plans, though don't see an overt one in the supplied image), hence the CA to provide ease of reading the...
Thanks all, you confirmed my suspicions.
I often receive diagram 'simplifiers' from the respective SCCs/ROCs that cover the schemes I'm working on (if complexity of the timetable requires it). I was just hoping to do away with requests for them if/where possible.
Now that NR have done away...
Thanks. This is the issue with the NR CIF data (from Milton Keynes) being both incomplete and outdated. Class 350s come out as Class 506!?, Class 378s come out as 375s etc. There is no length or set formation data there. I'd just like to build timetables as accurately as I can. Thanks for all...
I'm looking for a data source/inside knowledge regarding service patterns that are regularly booked to run in multiple. e.g. 4 car set, that are usually run say as an 8 or 12 car set formation etc.
Is there anywhere that this sort of information can be overtly obtained?
I'm not looking for...
Thanks for confirming from ROC / route level.
Depending upon which supplier is selected I hope to have significant involvement in Thameslink TM deployment.
Did you happen to get a date for Victoria II, Stage 2: Sutton-Wimbledon-Mitcham? Dec 2016/Easter 2017 possibly? Thx.
Of current CP5 live schemes the following are 'modular':
> Derby - Stoke
> Chester - Llandudno
> East Nottingham
That's under 10% of current schemes.
Future schemes... seemingly no more common looking into CP6 workbank.
Likely...
As someone whose been involved with NR and the TM suppliers for the past three years, and is heavily involved in the 'de-scoped' Subsequent Deployment, I can confirm those schemes & dates are correct as of now.
All the Sussex & LNE schemes cited are the 'optional' components of...
Not sure about signal box closures, but do have some proposed workstation commissioning dates:
Three Bridge ROC / Sussex Route
2016.01 (London Bridge 'Inner') Charing Cross workstation (TMS/WestCad Interfaced)
2016.05 (Victoria II) Streatham workstation (WestCad conventional, No ARS)...
Is there any way to gain information about service Consist/Formation lengths from NR CIF files/OpenData?
FREIGHT
- What freight flows run as what overall lengths?
- Can this be drawn out (automated from) the NR CIF?
- If not can timing load values 'roughly' be transposed into lengths (SLUs or...
I'll get back to you on the boundaries... From memory (as i don't have it to hand) the two stage areas are split at Tulse Hill on the Portsmouth's and Norbury on the Brighton's.
These projects are a deviation from my normal role in Traffic Management...
Announcement on de-scoped TM will be made...
I'm currently working on the training simulator part of the for the Victoria Phase 2, Stage 1 Streatham Workstation project (re-signalling/re-control to TBROC).
Dates on our contract are currently:
Simulator installed for use: 20/01/2016
Final Commissioning: 03/05/2016
So definitely...
TrackMaps are currently developing a subscription online service with electronic editions of their various TM books. Don't expect anything in a hurry though! :lol:
Hi. I currently work on the TMS 1st Deployment Schemes with Thales, for Wales & Romford ROCs.
It's now been confirmed that this initial deployment will continue to anticipated completion in Dec 2015, but that the subsequent deployment (National Roll-out) procurement is cancelled in it's current...
Thanks All, appreciate your efforts and responses.
In the process of producing post re-modelling validation simulator/timetable, but haven't been supplied with the usual data from NR that usually would have been.
If any of you do get hold of any further, or even current data that might be of use...
Thanks, I'm aware of the MR Dec 2012 edition, but the detail outlined in my request is far less high level, i.e. more specific than the detail contained in the article.
I guess the hope was to gain information from someone here who may be affiliated to either the Derby Re-modelling program, to...
Can anyone help with the following details for the current/future Derby re-modelling Project:
Standage (Lengths (mtrs)/car length capacities) for...
All Derby Etches Park Sdg Roads
All Chaddesden Sdgs Roads
In lieu of appropriate Schematic Plans. Many Thanks in advance.
Where I'm fortunate enough to live takes a bit of beating...

Aside from that would have to be West Highland, Loch Eil ~ Mallaig :idea:
