Course Overview

This course provides an understanding of signalling principles as they are applied
on the UK mainline network. It is of use in a variety of fields, including design, testing, maintenance, railway operations, project management or incident investigation.

The content is drawn from our IST - Layouts and IST- Control Tables courses, but involves less practical workin a shorter timescale. If you have a need for detailed understanding of signalling principles, we would recommend that you attend those two courses instead.

The course content includes:

Types of Signal and Route Indicator
Classes of Route
Positioning of Signals to suit operational needs
Signalling Plan Symbols
Interpreting the signalling plan
Train Warning and Protection systems
Points arrangements
Train detection arrangements
Functional Principles of equipment
Interlocking Principles
Route Life Cycle
Understanding Points control tables
Understanding Route control tables

The Signalling Principles Primer course is produced and run by Signet Solutions

For your convenience we have labelled some courses with “familiar” three letter acronym titles. Despite this familiar labelling, we remind you that our courses are far superior to those same titles being offered elsewhere. Please see the individual course specifications to confirm the up-to-date and relevant content.

Our design training is based upon current Railway Group and Network Rail Company standards, supplemented by best practice guidance where these are unclear. However, we encourage a deep understanding of the principles and how they mitigate risks, rather than unquestioning adherence to standards or completion of boxes.

Our design courses are supported by relevant demonstration using our suite of working practical equipment, including signals, points, track circuits, locations, SSI equipment, mechanical signalling, block circuits, route relay interlocking and entrance-exit control panel.

Signet Solutions are also able to design training to meet the specific needs of your staff in the design field. We are able to train on any aspect of the design role.

Signet Solutions have successfully delivered designer development programmes, which provide employers with an express train route to competent professional design teams.

We have recently completed a purpose built Route Relay Interlocking, with Entrance Exit panel and full simulation of trackside equipment.

This facility is purpose built for training, illustrating a wide range of signalling and implementation principles.

All of our RRI training benefits from the use of this facility.

We have newly designed four specific RRI training courses to suit the needs of common roles

Please note that our training is completely newly designed. We have attached the familiar acronym titles to assist you in identifying the courses.

We can also design and deliver tailored training to meet the actual needs of your staff

Our relay interlocking training is based upon current Railway Group and Network Rail Company standards, supplemented by best practice guidance where these are unclear.

Individual sessions will be supported by appropriate presentations and additional notes when necessary. This approach ensures that delegates are aware of the latest standards and procedures relevant to their role. Signet Solutions learning approach is to challenge delegates to investigate, learn and question how the works testing practices interfaces with the overall requirements for providing safe systems. This allows works testing to be viewed in context with other functions such as design, installation and maintenance whilst not overlapping the content. Our trainers take a supportive approach that enables individual needs to be addressed but without spoon-feeding. Most importantly our events are designed to maximise the opportunities for delegates to enhance their underpinning knowledge and practical experience.

Signet Solutions see this as a developmental process, therefore delegates are assessed throughout the events and the traditional individual assessment approach is always challenged. This does not lessen the impact of the events. Individual assessments are undertaken as necessary but delegates who require additional support and development are identified during the event and accurate feedback on individuals performance can be supplied to their manager upon completion of the event. Our approach assesses the solutions available, either additional training or additional support in the workplace but most importantly ensures the correct solution for the individual delegate.

For your convenience we have labelled some courses with “familiar” three letter acronym titles. Despite this familiar labelling, we remind you that our courses are far superior to those same titles being offered elsewhere. Please see the individual course specifications to confirm the up-to-date and relevant content.

Our maintenance training is based upon current Railway Group and Network Rail Company standards, supplemented by best practice guidance where these are unclear. However, we encourage a deep understanding of the operating principles of equipment and how maintenance procedures enable the equipment to be serviced accurately. We do however challenge the delegates to understand how they can impact on the system and ensure they work on the equipment safely and with good underpinning knowledge and practical ability which is assessed in a safe and controlled environment.

Our maintenance courses are supported by relevant demonstration using our suite of working practical equipment, including signals, points, track circuits, locations, SSI equipment, mechanical signalling, block circuits, route relay interlocking and entrance-exit control panel.

Signet Solutions are also able to design training to meet the specific needs of your staff in the maintenance field. We are able to train on any aspect of the maintainer’s role.

Signet Solutions have successfully delivered maintenance development programmes, which provide employers with an express train route to competent professional teams.
