UPDATED: The development of Network Rail’s Fixed Telecom Network, the implementation of FTN & GSM-R - London & SE section
26 Sep 2019 5:30 PM - 8:30 PM
Section: London & South East Section

UPDATED TALK: Sorry, but owing to the current internal and external reviews being carried out on HS2, we have had to postpone the planned talk on HS2. This is a disappointment as so many people have asked for tickets to this event. We look forward to Mark presenting his talk at a later date.

In place of the HS2 talk on Thursday 26th September we have a talk on the development of Network Rail’s Fixed Telecom Network, the implementation of FTN & GSM-R by our Chairman Trevor Foulkes. Trevor will present on the development of Network Rail’s Fixed Telecom Network, the implementation of FTN & GSM-R and the acceptance of the networks into day-to-day use. Trevor is going to take you through a potted history of this programme and will include:

  • The need to provide GSM-R and its role on the railway
  • How the projects were implemented
  • How the networks are configured to provide end to end service
  • How the safety and Interoperability approvals were obtained

Unfortunately, as we do not have a sponsor for this event, so we will not been providing refreshments. We will endeavour to provide water but if you need other refreshment then please bring your own.

If you have already booked a ticket for HS2 and feel you no longer wish to attend the event please go on to Eventbrite and delete your ticket so that the London and South East section have a reasonable understanding of the number of attendees we are likely to get for Trevor's talk.

All IRSE members and non-members are welcome to attend this event.

For building security, you must pre-register for this event via Eventbrite.
