Rail Incident Investigation

Rail incident investigation involves examining accidents or near-misses on the railway to determine their causes. Trained investigators analyze factors such as equipment failure, human error, signaling, and environmental conditions. The goal is to identify what went wrong and why, so that measures can be implemented to prevent future incidents. These investigations help improve safety standards, protect workers and passengers, and ensure the railway operates reliably. The process is thorough, objective, and follows established procedures to provide insights that lead to safer railway operations for everyone.
