The concept of Accutrack is to create the most cost effective 'Moving Factory' for Track Renewals
Track Renewal techniques have changed little since the 1960’s. Most work is still undertaken using cranes or gantries to lift the track a panel (20m) at a time and the majority of ballast is excavated using fairly conventional construction type plant. The obvious exception to this has been the introduction of the Track Relaying Train on the West Coast Project. Such machines represent a large capital investment with relatively large operations teams and therefore can only ever be expected to be available for a small proportion of the workload.
What has previously been absent in the UK industry is a high output low cost track renewal system that can be applied to the majority of the work on the network and assist Network Rail to achieve their challenging 31% efficiency target recently set by the Rail Regulator.
Jarvis have developed such a system based upon their unique TRS & RBE machines. These were developed by Jarvis Engineers as a simple but effective system to renew track more quickly, safely and with greater flexibility than current methods whilst achieving results at a lower cost with significantly less disruption to the network.
Although designed to operate as a system, each can work independently as more efficient alternatives to traditional component replacement methods.
The Track Renewal System (TRS) will lift out track panels as long as the train itself in a single, radio controlled operation. When installing new track, TRS brings all the neccessary materials to site and installs its full payload of sleepers and rail in a single, rapid operation
The Rapid Ballast Excavator prepares a high quality formation at a rate of up to 500 tonnes per hour.
Site delivery is monitored by our unique 24/7 Track Renewals Operations Centre. If required this allows us to implement prepared contingency plans to support 100% on time delivery
