SUMMARY:Advanced Track Technician Mod 3 - November 2026
DESCRIPTION:RailEI Advanced Track Technician Course\nModule 3 – Decision-making\, Planning and Management of Trackwork\nDelegates will learn how innovations in survey\, design\, maintenance\, renewal\, and project work can be harnessed to help make safe and efficient plans. Diversity and sustainability issues will be explored\, as will the interdependencies between the various engineering functions and train operations\, so that key management skills including decision making\, prioritisation\, record keeping\, data analysis\, and report writing are developed. Practical skills will be developed in plain line and S&C surveying and inspection\, rail and rail defect management\, mechanised alignment maintenance\, and rail stressing. \nFor full details and to download a booking form CLICK HERE \n

SUMMARY:Advanced S&C Systems Engineering Mod 2 - November 2026
DESCRIPTION:RailEI Advanced Switch & Crossing Systems Engineering Course\nModule 2\nProgramme aim\nPoints\, Switches and Crossings (P&C\, S&C) are critical to railway performance\, yet maintenance of these assets often lack complete coordination between the track and signalling teams. The Advanced S&C Systems Engineering course bridges this gap. Equipping engineers with the knowledge and tools to optimise reliability\, reduce failures and improve safety and train performance. \nThe course will contain case studies of how to run effective PLANNED PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE regimes for S&C and how to identify and analyse potential failure modes for track and signalling components. The course will be 60% track theory and 40% signalling theory. \nEnhance understanding of signalling and track design and maintenance principles and interfaces. \nOne course\, two weeks. \nFor full details and to download a booking form CLICK HERE \n
