Makerspace: Where is my train-Crossrail Signalling
Tuesday 5 Mar 2019
19:30 to 21:00
Basingstoke Makerspace, 65 New Road, Basingstoke
England
Basingstoke Friends members and guests are invited to this special talk at Basingstoke Makerspace. The speaker is Kevin Roche who will be talking about what is happening with the new Elizabeth Line.
Attendance is free and open to all. The talk starts at 7.30pm ... tea and coffee available beforehand from 7pm for a donation.
The Elizabeth Line was supposed to be running through Central London by December 2018 but it isn’t. Many people are blaming the complex signalling systems. Are they right?
Did a small problem in Mid Wales cause a more than one-year delay in Central London?
What went wrong with Crossrail’s Signals?
An introduction to railway signalling and how it has developed in the UK.
What it means for finalising the Elizabeth Line and getting the trains to run.
