So Network Rail has launched a new Ultrasonic Test Unit.
According to Network Rail's director of engineering Steve Yianni:
“Network
Rail’s number one priority is safety and the addition of this unit to
our fleet means we can measure the safety and quality of our railway to
much higher standards.
“It also means we can keep our test trains
running more reliably and at more times across the country. With this we
can improve the quality of the ride for all our passengers, and make
sure they reach their destination in complete safety.”
Here Patrick Bossert, NR's Director of Asset Information outlines how devolution means that he now runs a 'services business', and how the new 'UTU1' vehicle will help the UK squeeze more out of its rail network.
Interesting!
