Use of modern technologies in railway transport

transport, the current situation is that the level of quality of services provided by railway transport organizations is lower than the level requested by the market. Rail transport is losing its leading position in the field of transport to the JSC "RZD" was the joint work plan with JSC "Branch centre of implementation new techniques and technologies" for the introduction and use of new technology platform"Application of innovative technologies clariswiki and improve the safety of railway transport".

a system for marking passenger and freight trains with radio frequency tags-the so-called RFID technology. The railway tracks and communication nodes themselves will also be marked

the document flow with cargo senders to electronic form, the departmental electronic trading platform will become a "window" for providing cargo delivery services, smart contracts will speed up and increase the efficiency of business processes. According to the company's estimates, in general, this should allow it to increase the growth of loading volumes by 70 million tons by 2025 only through the introduction of digital technologies.
CRM and customer data management system-the basis for implementing better B2C services through the company's website,

locomotives are serviced within a trusted IT environment. Together with Cognitive Technologies, Russian Railways has launched a project involving the use of machine vision IT solutions from this developer to collect data from sensors located on rolling stock and analyze this data in real time.
To manage the life cycle of the entire railway infrastructure, the company has created a special linear infrastructure operator, which will, in particular, use digital modeling methods in construction and operation

use of satellite technologies for train traffic management, construction, modernization, repair of railways, monitoring of track infrastructure, property management and environmental protection. All these technologies assume the presence of a single coordinate space and positioning systems with different degrees of accuracy.
In the future, it is necessary to create a complex for ensuring the safety of railway traffic using satellite technologies in the railway industry as a whole on the basis of technologies developed for individual farms.

about the railway: the problems of controlling the vertical displacement of tracks and the temperature changes that lead to the derailment of trains. In addition, the technological development and transformation of rails and stations into smart rails and smart stations opens up profitable opportunities for startups and major market players.
For example, Skype Technologies plans to develop a global narrow-band IoT network for collecting machine data collected from transport infrastructure and agricultural equipment, starting in 2020. They tested their development-the Skylo Hub-in conjunction with Indian Railways and installed portable integrated satellite transceivers and IoT hubs in railway cars and equipment.

the development of smart shipyards for the repair and maintenance of railcars and engines, the use of lubricants for railcars for the smooth operation of engines, the monitoring of railway tracks, the prediction of track plate breakdowns, and the fixing of internal combustion components. Smart shipyards consist of sensors installed on the roadside to collect data from passing cars and wagons.

more attention to the environment in the world. Several countries have focused on developing hydrogen-based trains, as they are capable of creating a new generation of low-carbon transport and rail services. Zero-emission hydrogen-powered trains are already available in Europe, Asia, and now North America.

cars and electric buses have already come into our lives. The queue for railway transport. A couple of years ago, at the InnoTrans-2018 exhibition, almost all major global locomotive manufacturers-Toshiba, Alstom, Gmeinder Lokomotiven GmbH and others-presented serial samples of hybrid models.
