RAILWAY OPERATION PART 1: RAILWAY SIGNALLING

SUBTOPIC: SAFETY SYSTEM

What I learnt

The video shows that railway signalling is one of the most important components in train services. It ensures the safety of all train users.

Subtopic self-reflection

Advanced systems should be used to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the railway signalling system used. For example, in Malaysia, Communication Base Train Control (CBTC) is used. CBTC is a microprocessor based system (Mansour, 2017). It provides intelligent information about the status and ensures the system is fail safe. Such advanced technology increases the safety of trains.

Advance activity 3

For this activity, we need to watch a YouTube video.

A snapshot of the video.

The video is about digital railway in traffic management. In my opinion, it is important to keep up with new technologies because they help us to do tasks more efficiently and more accurately compared to when doing manually.

Overall reflection

Technology evolves very fast. Therefore, we should be open to use the latest technology to get the benefits.
