Railway Planning, Management and Engineering

By Nathan Bush

Railway engineering is the branch of engineering dedicated to the design, operation, and construction of rail transport systems. As an overarching field, it incorporates principles from various other engineering disciplines, including but not limited to civil engineering, electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, computer engineering, production engineering, and industrial engineering. Railway signaling and systems integration stand out as the most crucial sub-fields within railway engineering. Railway signaling plays a vital role in ensuring the safe clearance of trains from each other and in directing railway traffic efficiently. The process of system integration involves consolidating constituent sub-systems into a unified system. It makes use of diverse techniques, including enterprise application integration, computer networking, and business process management. This book is compiled in such a manner, that it will provide in-depth knowledge about the theory and applications of railway engineering. The topics covered in it deal with the core aspects of the subject. Coherent flow of topic, student-friendly language and extensive use of examples make this book an invaluable source of knowledge.
