Lubrication and friction management can help railroads reduce fuel consumption by 5% to 15% or more depending on route characteristics, according to Transportation Technology Center, Inc., (TTCI) evaluations. And compared with dry conditions, both have been observed to reduce rail wear rates by 80% or more in extreme curving conditions.
“With the potential benefits of rail friction control documented over a period exceeding 100 years, recent research and development has focused on how best to implement rail lubrication strategies,” TTCI Senior AVP Research and Development Gary Fry tells Railway Age. “There have been two main areas of focus for this implementation research. First, there is a need to maintain rail friction at targeted levels (i.e., not too high and not too low) to ensure benefit from the lubrication, while also ensuring desirable dynamic performance of locomotives, railcars and overall trains.

Director of infrastructure at Donald Cant Watts Corke, Andrew Loh, discusses the benefits and complexities of public private partnerships.
AUSTRALIA is currently in the midst of an infrastructure boom. A key catalyst of this is the Australian government’s pledge to spend $110 billion on transport infrastructure projects across the nation over the next decade. Infrastructure projects by nature are high risk, have very large project values and long construction times. Public private partnerships have emerged as the preferred procurement method for such projects. In a PPP type arrangement, the state (public sector) is legally bound to a private consortium and the partners agree to share some portion of the associated inherent risks and rewards.
