Beautiful snowy conditions on the West Highland Line this morning. Whatever the weather, our digital in-cab signalling system installed here and on the Far North Line helps keep the rail network safe.
Some beautiful photos from a snowy Mallaig line. 😍❄️
Our local team using a road-rail vehicle to inspect the route between Mallaig and Fort William this morning ahead of services restarting.

@comms_design and @tfwrail are preparing to trial a digital signalling system that will enhance passenger experience and optimise train operations on rural and low-density rail routes. More details here:

🚉Request stop trial
We've been supporting @comms_design in creating and developing a Request to Stop prototype, which we'll be trailing next (this) week.
📍 We'll be at Llanfairpwll station on Wednesday 24 July. Stop by if you're in the area; we'd love to hear your feedback!
Day 2 of #RIC24 at the ICC Newport. We're looking forward to welcoming more visitors to Stand 13 to hear about our transformative innovations for the rail industry. @railindustry
Yesterday we got another best ever day for passenger trains OTP (on time performance):
- 96% trains departed on schedule
- 99% train arrived on schedule
I know I am boring, but this day was really good. #KeepRunning 😎
Meet us today (23rd November 2022) at @Modern_Railways expo Marshall Arena Milton Keynes. Free shuttle bus from the railway station to find out about our in-cab digital signalling solution for remote, rural and industrial railways.
Comms Design will be attending the Rail Infrastructure Networking event on the 17th of November.
We will be featuring a variety of products and innovations across Signalling, Rail Safety and Rail Maintenance.
Talk to us about the future of rural signaling and RETB.
Comms Design's Managing Director Paul Clark will be giving a presentation on "New perspectives on rural signalling and train control" for the IRSE on October 26th.
UPDATE: "New perspectives on rural signalling and train control" will now take place on 26 October. This event has been moved due to upcoming rail strikes.
This will be held as a hybrid event. In-person booking closes on 21 October: https://t.co/7TNG2ckyDu

The latest deliverable project from Comms Design for Clarke Chapman Group. Portable radio base stations offer a cost-effective communications solution to ensure the safety and efficiency of railway engineers working over a large area or at railway incidents.
@NetworkRailSCOT@ScotRail@DBCargoUK For those wanting more information, have a look here to see how we helped re-invent RETB for the future: https://t.co/KB65sLOeV2
If there’s no trains coming in the opposite direction, the signaller can send the driver a ‘long section’ token which allows them to continue further than usual. This means that they can pass these Stop signs with the yellow board below them. @NetworkRailSCOT ^Angus
