			<description><![CDATA[[attachment=2262][attachment=2261][attachment=2260][attachment=2259]<br />
Is Hot axle box detectors a part of safety condsiderations?<br />
<br />
I thought the question would best sit in this forum rather than train protection, train detection or "general". Just my opinion, I could be wrong.......often I am.<br />
<br />
Not sure if i provided enough detail about the mechanisms part to get the marks. Just went with a diagram and basic explanation. The question didn't ask for functionality, archtitecture etc so was thinking about time.<br />
<br />
I wasn't sure about how to determine the relative temperatures over which the system will work.<br />
I probably dropped marks on the external factors and info passed to the operator as well. Struggled to find enough study material which went into the relevant detail i needed.<br />
<br />
Please review and coment. Would be interested to see others interpretation of the question.]]></description>

<br />
please review and comment.<br />
<br />
Started off thinking about going down the line of either a next generation remote control TCOD or a module in the SSI which can be  activated in a loc or with a wireless handheld device. The question was specifically asking for an automatic staff warning system so that was the reason for my choice. I also assumed the work does not affect the line so no possession needed.<br />
<br />
Many thanks]]></description>

<br />
Looking through my answers now I've realised i could actually cut the points down quite a bit and focus directly on worker safety instead of adding "other" hazards. <br />
Answer needs to be more streamlined.<br />
Tried to answer it logically step by step as if I'm actually on site doing a job.<br />
<br />
Sorry forgot to time it but i'd say I went over just a tad  <img src="https://irse.signalpost.org/images/smilies/rolleyes.gif" alt="Rolleyes" title="Rolleyes" class="smilie smilie_6" /> got a bit carried away with cable routes......]]></description>
