GLT “MOBILE” SIMULATORS CAN PROVIDEON SITE ERTMS TRAINING 24X7 AT UK TOC LOCATIONS – ELIMINATING

TRAVEL COSTS AND TAKING DRIVERS OUT OF SERVICE

SINCE 2006, GLT MOBILE SIMULATOSR HAVE OPERATED 24X7 IN EXTREME HEAT AND COLD AND HAVE ON-BOARD POWER

The tractor (lorry) as well as the outside of the trailer can be customized with company logos and training safety mission objectives, ERTMS etc., and promoting the Amphitheatre Simulation Training Centre of Excellence

Simulation has long been used for training Astronauts, the Military, and in safety critical fields like Aviation, Super Tanker Shipping and Nuclear Power. Since 1987, GLT has spearheaded this calibre of Simulation Technology to the UK and North America Rail Industry, enabling locomotive engineers to be evaluated and trained to airline pilot’s standards of certification.

Human Factors Engineering (HFE) and Human Systems Integration (HSI)

To safely and rapidly integrate ERTMS, along with Simulation, GLT can provide HFE and HSI to optimize Training, Safety, and Integration of New Technologies and Systems. HFE and HSI, traditionally used by the U.S. Military, avoids unforeseen design errors and reduces the risk of integrating new systems

Customer Satisfaction!

Sign off and acceptance of GLT`s Mobile Simulator by customers CEO and BOD. It has operated flawlessly in extreme heat and winter conditions 24X7 for 5 years

TOTAL REALISM

AND REPLICATION

To optimize realism the Simulators use actual train controls and gauges. We can accurately replicate the handling and performance characteristics of any train model, from any manufacturer in the world, in any language!

PICTURE THIS!! AUTUMN + DRIVING INTO SUN = EXTREME DANGER!

Autumn + driving into the sun = Extreme Danger. Drivers have to “multi-task” and stay focused. The Simulator is the only safe way to evaluate, train and certify drivers to react safely to these conditions by acquiring multi-tasking skills.

AUTUMN = DANGER

Customers world-wide know that Autumn = danger when residue from leafs makes rails as slippery as a car driving on ice! It is a major cause of SPAD’s (Signals Passed at Danger). The Simulator with HFE and HSI is the safest way to train drivers to handle these conditions to ensure Passenger Safety.

Mobile Simulator has a classroom for 10 drivers to observe driver in the simulator with instructor, and or, use CBT systems. To increase training capacity, the 180 degree field-of-view can be transmitted to 60`plasma screens in a remote classroom.

SUMMARY OF BENEFITS OF GLT SIMULATORS WITH HFE & HSI TECHNOLOGIES

Combining Simulation and CBT with Human Factors Engineering and Human Systems Integration, will optimize training and provide;

SAFE, RAPID LEARNING, CERTIFICATION AND INTEGRATION OF ERTMS

Mobile Driver Training Simulator – Braking benefits

•Major benefits can be achieved on Brakes equipment in three key areas;

1.Wear and tear on Brake Discs

2.Wear and tear Brake Actuators

3.Wear and tear on Brake Pads

This is achieved by training drivers on state of the art simulators with HFE and HSI to use and adopt appropriate driver behaviour / technique(s) utilising manufacture’s / OEM software “as designed”.

Post run analysis can be produced to show the effects of good / inappropriate driver behaviour / technique.

• Additional Benefits

1.Reduce operator costs

2.Life cycle cost benefits for manufacturer’s and operators

3.Manufacturer’s benefit on price per kilometre / mile contracts increases profit potential due to reduced wear.

4.Manufacturer’s being seen as added value and solution provider to industry.” It does what it’s says on the tin”.

5.Removal of risk to manufacturer’s, risk of operator(s) claims for premature wear and tear of components due to inappropriate driver behaviour / technique

Benefits of Human Factors Engineering (HFE) and Human Systems Integration (HSI)

HFE & HSI is an Engineering Science traditionally used by the Military to avoid unforeseen Design and Human Error. It is proven to have saved hundreds of millions of dollars. GLT is the only company making it available to the rail industry, combined with simulation, to optimize training, safety and Best-Practises.

Benefits include;

Eliminates unforeseen or inherent design errors in drivers cab or rail car layoutCritiques engineering design at development stages prior to final sign of and acceptanceSupport of engineer cognitive models of consist, track, and operating rules.Control and display design and layout. - Cab environment.Reduce the likelihood of, and costs associated with, system upgrades and midcourse design changes.Support of engineer population to see, reach, fit, and work postures.

Benefits of Human Factors Engineering (HFE) and Human Systems Integration (HSI)

Reduce system lifecycle costs Cognitive demands including attention, vigilance, planning, decision making, workload. Crew, yard, and dispatch communication and coordination. Fatigue studies (sustained attention - reaction-time - decision-making – vigilance). Support of task time and timing. Support of sustained operations and fitness for duty. Effective integration of automation. Increase Railroad Safety. Improve operator performance and operational efficiency. Increase user acceptance.

SUMMARY OF BENEFITS FOR ERTMS

The combination of Mobile Simulators for on-site TOC Training, with fixed-site Simulators in an Amphitheatre Simulation Training Centre of Excellence, combined with Human Factors Engineering and Human Systems Integration technologies, will achieve the mission objective for ERTMS, SAFE, RAPID LEARNING, CERTIFICATION AND INTEGRATION OF ERTMS TO ALL UK TOCS
