Signalling Control Successes at Reading and North London Line
DeltaRail engineers worked through the Christmas period to deliver major signalling control projects at Reading and on the North London Line. New IECC systems were installed at Network Rail's Thames Valley and Upminster signalling centres.
The new IECC control system for Reading comprises four workstations with Automatic Route-Setting (ARS) functionality to optimise train movements in and around the area. The Reading Enabling Project was handed back for use on 30th December.
Two new IECC workstations with ARS were installed at Upminster. These are additional to the three existing IECC workstations that control the route from London to Tilbury and Southend. The North London Line passes through the inner suburbs of North London, crossing many important routes, and making the IECC installations particularly complicated. The work was part of the £326 million upgrade of the London Overground network. When this work is complete passengers will see longer trains, more frequent services and will benefit from reliable connections to the main 2012 London Olympic and Paralympic Games Park at Stratford.
Since DeltaRail was created in 2006 our signalling control business turnover has grown by 70% and we have a strong order book extending well beyond 2011. We have significantly expanded our team of IRSE-licensed Functional Testers, Principal Testers and Testers in-charge to meet this new demand.
DeltaRail is currently investing in the next generation signalling control system "IECC Scalable" which will be available in 2011.
