01
Introduction to Railway Signalling
- Evolution of signalling systems
- Basic signalling principles
- Types of railway signalling systems
About The Program
The Diploma in Railway Signalling Program is a specialized vocational program designed to develop expertise in railway signalling systems used in metro and mainline railways.
Focused on real-world applications, this program enables professionals to understand, design, and implement signalling systems ensuring safe and efficient train operations.
Aligned with internationally recognized standards such as EN 50128, EN 50129, and IEEE 1474, the course bridges the gap between theory and industry practices.
Course Objectives
This program enables participants to:
- Understand fundamentals of railway signalling systems
- Learn signalling principles, interlocking, and control systems
- Gain knowledge of signalling architectures (Relay, Electronic, CBTC)
- Understand train detection and track systems
- Learn signalling safety concepts and fail-safe design
- Develop understanding of signalling standards and compliance
