Innovations in Railways: Decarbonization and Infrastructure-Inspecting Drones

► Railways Explained aims to establish a WORLDWIDE COMMUNITY of all RAIL LOVERS, WORKERS AND EXPERTS, by creating regular, entertaining and educational railway content of high quality. ► If you find yourself in at least one of these three groups, support this idea by SUBSCRIBING TO RAILWAYS EXPLAINED. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Support us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/railways_explained --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- - Today, we start a series of videos dedicated to a topic that is now relevant more than ever before - innovations in railway traffic! Among others, there are zero-emission hydrogen trains, advanced autonomous trains able to handle even emergency situations, drone-based automation of infrastructure maintenance, implementation of 4G technology in train management systems, implementation of big data technology for improving the safety, security and reliability of rail infrastructure, artificial intelligence used for real-time traffic simulations and delay forecasting, variable railway bogies allowing a single train to operate at two or even more different track gauges and many, many other. There’s a good reason why innovations find their way to railways so easily. On one hand, rail technology continues to develop as rail customers are demanding faster, safer and more reliable service, while on the other, the railway system is, by definition, suitable for automation of certain processes due to fact that the freedom of movement of trains is, well, taken away by the rails. However, as this aspect of railways has been always super interesting to us, we decided to share with you some thoughts, and to introduce you with the recent trends in this field. As, of course, it is impossible to cover all rail-related technological breakthroughs and innovation trends in one single video, we are now going to speak only about two - decarbonization and automation of infrastructure maintenance. In the next video in this series, our intention is to discuss the application of 4G technology in traffic management systems and the recent developments in the field of gauge-changing trains. Now, let’s start! - If you enjoyed this video, SHARE it with your rail-loving friends to help us raise our community, and of course leave your opinion in the COMMENT section and hit the LIKE button. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- ► Stay connected with us on social media: - Facebook: https://facebook.com/RailwaysExplaine...​ - Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/railways_ex​​​​... igshid=k0tv5loew79e&fbclid=IwAR0Ix2jPPbcUwhArt_iym9vzKgvrUQaLLH_4JkhILyzyY_upCyxTf5qxcwA - Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/railways-​​​​...
