RAILWAY TECHNOLOGY
Thermal technology to increase the efficiency of trains
Although rail transport is seen as one of the safest modes of land transport, rail companies are continuously looking for new ways to improve safety and efficiency on and off the tracks.

Over the years the number of accidents have been reduced thanks to the efforts of the rail community who have focused heavily on improving safety in the sector. But let us not forget that more than 90% of railway accidents are caused by third parties, mostly trespassers and ill-timed level crossing users. These accidents are some of the hardest to reduce, and are something that the railways cannot eliminate without the correct technology. Thermal cameras by FLIR are being used in the rail industry to help mitigate the risks that trespassers bring as it has been proven to enhance train efficiency and keep people safe by protecting critical infrastructure and Rolling Stocks.
Rail trespassing remains a huge problem on Belgium’s railway network despite various countermeasures by Belgian rail infrastructure management company Infrabel. Trespassers not only put their own lives at risk, they also cause severe delays, which cost a fortune to the Belgian tax payer. In order to prevent incidents and delays on Belgium’s busiest railway trajectory, Infrabel now uses thermal imaging cameras from FLIR to detect people walking on the tracks.
