Abstract:
Scientific and technological progress amid the process of global digitalisation has prompted the demand for professions in relevant fields such as logistics, analytics, agriculture, industrial manufacturing, transport, and primarily for engineering and technical workers. Russian railways require not only physical infrastructure, but also digital skills of its operation by engineering and technical workers in order to integrate into the digital economy. The aim of the article is to study modern requirements for the professional competencies of railway engineers, primarily their digital literacy

Abstract:
Analyses were carried out of the exhaust emissions from locomotives in Canadian railway operations based on data as of the end of 2001. The authors found that locomotive technology used in the fleet significantly influenced the emission factor while duty cycles had a lesser influence. This is because despite using less fuel for the horse-power produced, the newer diesel engines produce more emissions per unit of fuel consumed. Since 1997, there has been a significant change in the locomotive fleet profile as the Canadian Class I railways replace their 1970s’ era 3,000HP SD-40 type locomotives

Abstract When new pipelines are constructed, they often cross existing major infrastructure, such as railways. To reduce potential service disruption, it is a common practice to complete these crossings using trenchless technologies. Without proper methods and oversight in planning and construction, there may be serious safety and financial implications to the operators of the railways and the public due to unacceptable settlement or heave. If movement tolerances are exceeded, the schedule and financial loss to the railway operators could be in the millions of dollars per day. Recent construct
