Fewer train delays. Now!Train delays are a pain. But why are they so frequent? At peak times, most rail networks run at nearly 100 per cent capacity, causing a quick spread of disruptions throughout the system. So most delays are actually just the knock-on effect of other delays. Unlike road jam situations, train drivers can't just squeeze past a broken-down locomotive and speed off. What can be done about this?The best solution for minimizing delays is, of course, new rail infrastructure, since more rail on the ground means more slack in the system. A complementary, and more cost-efficient solution, is to use artificial intelligence to optimize utilization of existing infrastructure. The Train Brain is simply an AI that rapidly updates train delay predictions. By monitoring real-time arrival and departure times, the Train Brain knows which trains are late and can easily forecast the risk of further delays across the entire network. By subscribing to The Train Brain service, train operators can: INCREASE PUNCTUALITY- The Train Brain produces early warnings of upcoming disruptions. Dispatchers can then react quicker and resolve problems before they spread and cause knock-on delays.GIVE CUSTOMERS BETTER INFO- By using forecast data from The Train Brain as a complementary input for trip planning you enable a richer base of possible routes for the trip planner.- Passengers on commuters can receive early warnings whenever there is a risk that your daily commute will not leave on time. - Passengers on Intercity trains can get updated, more accurate info on the arrival of their train.
