INSIGHT INTO RAILWAY SIGNALLING COURSE

If you work in railways and are required to liaise with signal engineers, interface to railway signal systems, coordinate with signalling projects, provide operational requirements for signalling systems, then this Railway Signalling course will give you an insight to the technology, processes and principles that are used by railway signal engineers. The course is conducted jointly by the Australasian Railway Association (ARA) and IRSE Australasia.
