Earthworks, Drainage & Off-track Engineering Course
This course provides delegates with the detailed knowledge, understanding, and insights necessary to manage the risks presented by earthworks and associated ‘off track’ railway infrastructure assets.
Advanced Track Technician Course
The aim of this course is to give delegates advanced technical knowledge and understanding of track systems, and their associated methodologies and plant. 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.
Track Engineering Diploma
This programme gives delegates an understanding of the principles, theory and practice of track engineering in the UK. It is comprised of three modules and involves 100 hours of taught study all mapped to HE Level 6.
S&C Refurbishment
Delegates on this course will gain comprehensive detailed knowledge of switches & crossings and how to undertake refurbishment safely, efficiently and to the required engineering quality. The course will cover both the track assemblies and the trackbed under S&C.
Electrification Engineering
The aim of the programme is to give delegates an understanding of the principles of the theory and practice of electrification engineering in the UK. Gain an understanding of the theory and practice of overhead electrification engineering in the UK, including history and context, interfaces, inspection and maintenance.
Advanced Switch and Crossing Systems Engineering
This course equips delegates with the knowledge and tools to improve the reliability, safety and performance of switches and crossings (S&C). It covers technical theory, planned preventative maintenance, failure mode analysis and includes hands-on experience through diagnostics and site inspections.
