Classification of EMU An Electric Multiple Unit (EMU) is nothing but a multiple unit train which consists of self – propelled carriages and uses electricity as the motive power. It requires no separate locomotive , as electric traction motors are included within one or more numbers of the carriages. Most of these EMUs are used … Read more
Classification of Locomotives In India, there are different ways of classifying the locomotives. Based on various factors locomotives are classified. Locomotives are classified according to their track gauge, motive power, the work they are suited for and their power of model number. This is indicated by the class name which provides the information about the … Read more
Train Colour Light Signals A new state of art signaling systems which will allow more frequent passage of trains on the existing tracks o being progressively installed as the part of the electrification project. Electric light lamps made it possible to produce colour light signals which are bright enough to be seen not only in … Read more
Types of Signals There are various types of signals used for traction systems. They are described as follows: Fixed Signals: These signals are installed permanently. They are normally fixed at the track side. Hand Signals: These signals are used when fixed signals are not working due to certain reasons. Detonating Signals: These signals are used in … Read more
What is Railway Train Signaling Signaling is very important parameter in traction system. To achieve the proper coordination amongst the electric locomotive signals are must. To run the locomotive faster and to handle the large volume of traffic in given time with proper arrangement signaling plays very important role. Basically, signals are the devices which are … Read more
