Business Profile


high quality images can be retrieved from the recorder in a secure manner and passed to the police for action. R2P’s recordings have been used to secure prosecutions as a result of incidents on board trains, and will continue to do so. The travelling public can be provided with a journey experience that offers the safety and security that they expect.


Analytical tools for the Train operating Company


The company is able to supply a high-quality and cost-effective forward facing CCTV system which can be integrated as part of the saloon CCTV or a fully independent system. It provides a driver’s eye view of the track and infrastructure and can assist in the investigation of operational incidents:


• signal passed at danger (SPAD) • suicides and other fatalities • trespass, graffiti and stone throwing • trackside litter and vegetation surveys • equipment and materials left at the trackside by contractors.


R2P’s pantograph surveillance cameras


can continuously record the point of contact between the Overhead Line (OHL) and the pantograph, thereby giving precise information about the cause of any OHL


An R2P forward-facing camera captures the image of a member of the public oblivious to the imminent approach of the rail vehicle. In this instance a collision was narrowly avoided.


failure or damage to the pantograph itself. The system can pay for itself quickly and easily by identifying the true cause of an incident, thus avoiding disputes between the train operator and Network Rail. R2P’s remote status system can provide


email alerts to maintenance staff so that, for example if a camera fails or is damaged by graffiti, the appropriate action can be taken as soon as the train returns to the depot: The maintenance engineer is pre-warned and has the spare part available to deal with the problem quickly and efficiently.


Motivation for innovation A multi-cultural team is employed with a flat hierarchy. Everybody is encouraged to


participate in a meeting of minds, so the company has a great drive for innovation. The team is always looking to push the technology boundary to bring better quality solutions at competitive prices for its customers in the global rail market. Currently the company is working on development programmes to deliver, among others, long-range night time thermal- imaging forward facing alarm systems, and the provision of ‘black-box’ crash-survivable storage systems for video and other data. The team believes that many things will


change in the future and it is prepared for the challenge because it believes in - Visions on the move™
