Indian Railways is one of the largest transportation systems in the world which is emerging as the biggest potential market for the introduction of modern state-of-the-art technologies and solutions for optimally harnessing the existing resources and deploying new technology solutions. Indian Railways has huge talent and resource base towards adopting and deploying new technology solutions from around the globe as well as to develop innovative solutions indigenously.
Important areas where technological developments are needed include high speed trains, safety, track modernization, locomotives, signaling system and development of heavy haul system where axle loads and length of trains could be continuously increased as per needs. The Government has taken some key initiatives in this direction. A technology mission has been to focus national attention and drive modern technologies of monitoring, control, communications, design, electronics and materials for railway safety. Further initiatives are being also taken towards Railway’s network expansion, new infrastructure construction, technological up gradation and capacity enhancement, etc.
