Train dispatching

Train dispatching is the process of coordinating and managing train movements on railway networks to ensure safe, efficient, and timely operations. Dispatchers monitor train routes, schedules, and signals using specialized communication systems, and they direct train crews when to depart, stop, or adjust their speed. They also handle unexpected issues like delays or track obstructions, all while maintaining safety and minimizing congestion. Think of dispatchers as traffic controllers for trains, ensuring everything runs smoothly and safely across the railway network.
