Extending maintenance intervals of track switches utilising multi-channel redundancy of actuation and sensing

A concept for a novel track switch arrangement has been developed at Loughborough University, which, through a novel locking arrangement, allows parallel, multi-channel actuation and locking functions for the first time. This switch has been developed as part of the REPOINT project, and is referred...
