Description

Procurement of additional signallling simulator panels and software to expand Wessex's operations capability by installing additional signalling simulator functionality, in order to develop the safety and performance capability of our operators, onto existing digital simulator facilities that exist across Wessex Route. We will harness existing hardware previously procured with additional software from the compatible Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) to enhance our capability. The software will reflect the reality of relay interlockings for maximum efficacy of training, with Train Describer stepping functionality and a full system replica. Software/ hardware will be installed at Basingstoke and Woking facilities.
