Gondia, Real Time Information System (RTES) devices have been installed in 106 locomotives of South East Central Railway. The system is planned to be installed in all the locomotives in a phased manner. The exact information about where the train reached after leaving the station is now being obtained with the help of Real Time Information System (RTES) installed in the locomotives of the trains.
For this, a satellite-based device has been installed by the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) in the locomotives, which reads the speed of trains on the basis of GPS and issues updates.
For tracking of trains through satellite, there is an automatic feed of trains into the system of one moment location through satellite through a device fitted in the locomotives. With this, not only the actual location of the locomotives is obtained, but the passengers will also get the benefit of this facility easily in the form of information about the location of the trains.
Earlier, information about the location of trains was available on a station-to-station basis. Beach locations are updated based on calculation based on average speed. At present, due to the introduction of the upgrade system with Real Time Information System (RTES), the actual timing of arrival at the train station is known, as well as the train is passing through a forest or is standing somewhere on the outer, all these information will also be available. Will get
Since the locomotives in Indian Railways travel all over the country with different trains. Therefore, with this system, the location of railway locomotives can be easily traced and periodic maintenance etc. of these locomotives can also be easily ensured.
