Abstract:
Embodiments of an integrated rail efficiency and safety support system and method are shown comprising a server operable to receive a plurality of sets of collected information, each of the sets of collected information comprising a consist physical location and weather conditions and rail temperatures in an area of the respective consist and to process a predictive rail temperature algorithm for predicting a rail temperature and/or a trend in rail temperature for a selected section of track; and wherein the predictive rail temperature algorithm factors the information provided to it and provides a predicted rail temperature and/or trend in rail temperature for the selected section of track.

Claim (Index 11):
A method, comprising:\n (a) receiving over a network, from a plurality of moving consists, each consist comprising at least one rail vehicle, and by a server, a plurality of sets of collected information, each of the sets of collected information comprising a consist physical location and observed weather conditions and rail temperatures in an area of the respective consist; (b) receiving over the network, from a plurality of stationary inputs, a plurality of sets of stationary information, each of the sets of stationary information comprising at least one of observed weather conditions or rail temperatures in an area of the respective stationary input; (c) processing, by the server, a predictive rail temperature algorithm for predicting a rail temperature and/or a trend in rail temperature for a selected section of track; (d) wherein the predictive rail temperature algorithm factors the information provided to it and determines an instruction calculated to influence the rail temperature for the selected section of track; and (e) sending by the server, over the network, the instruction to a user.
