German abstract:
DUE TO THE ONGOING REMOTE CONTROL IN SIGNALLING TECHNOLOGY TRAIN OBSERVATION BY EMPLOYEES IS REDUCED AT TRADITIONAL LOCATIONS E.G. PLACE OF A STATION MANAGER. THE AUSTRIAN FEDERAL RAILWAYS (ÖBB) INFRASTRUCTURE OPERATION COMPANY HAS RECOGNISED THIS TREND VERY EARLY. SEVERAL YEARS AGO, THEY STARTED THE CONSTRUCTION OF A WAYSIDE DETECTION SYSTEM TO CONTROL THE TEMPERATURE OF PASSING TRAINS BECAUSE OF THE INCREASING DISCONTINUATION OF STATION MANAGERS DOING THE OBSERVATION OF BOXES AND BRAKES. OUTCOME OF THIS RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES IS THE HOT BOX DETECTION SYSTEM TK 99 OF THE HOA-GROUP AT INFRASTRUCTURE SERVICE IN THE INFRASTRUCTURE OPERATION COMPANY OF ÖBB WHICH IS USED IN THE RAILWAY NETWORK OF AUSTRIA OVER ONE HUNDRED TIMES AT THE MOMENT. MOREOVER NEW DEVELOPMENTS ON DYNAMIC WEIGHTING AND DERAILMENT DETECTION ARE YET IN A FIELD-TEST ON THE EASTERN LINE BETWEEN VIENNA AND THE HUNGARIAN BORDER.
