Beyond Detection: Combining Wayside Systems, Predictive Monitoring, and Human Oversight to Prevent Derailments

What Attendees Will Gain:

  • Why detection alone cannot prevent the next derailment:
    Examine the limits of current wayside systems as a reactionary safeguard and where predictive onboard monitoring changes the timeline of risk.
  • How layered safety works when wayside, onboard, and people operate together:
    See how established infrastructure, emerging technologies, and human oversight form a coordinated system rather than competing solutions.
  • Where the workforce remains essential in a more data-driven environment:
    Understand how labor continues to install, test, and maintain critical systems while applying expertise to interpret and act on new streams of information.

We hope you can join us for this informative and engaging workshop.
