List any four safety measures of railway

Answer»

Safety measures for Railway are:

  • Brakes: The brakes of a train follow a fail-safe system. Such a system returns to the condition of safety if any failure occurs.
  • Driver's safety Device: This is one of the oldest safety device which is currently in use. It is also known as the dead man's switch.
  • Power brake controller: This is a device that provides a SINGLE control for the accelerator and brake of the train.
  • Condition-based monitoring mechanism:The condition based monitoring mechanism will have two systems. An on-board system will detect glitches in roller BEARINGS, coach suspension etc. While the second system will detect WHEEL defects, hanging parts, BROKEN springs, and more.
