Rail Industry Standard for Recording of Rolling Stock Data
Part 1
Introduction
1.1
Purpose of this document
1.1.1
This document provides a standard on rolling stock shared data, for the rail industry to use
if they so choose.
1.1.2
This document combines and supersedes two existing documents:
a)
Association of Train Operating Companies (ATOC) Code of Practice,
ACOP/EC/01002 Approved Code of Practice - Maintenance Systems Shared Data.
b)
Traction and Rolling Stock Systems Management Group (T&RS SMG) Code of
Practice, SMG 012 Code of Practice defining Traction and Rolling Stock Shared Data.
1.1.3
This document sets out both the minimum mandated and non-mandated rolling stock data
that should be accessible to the rail industry members, irrespective of which information
technology (IT) system is in use. Where shared data is mandated this document makes
reference to the origin of the data.
1.1.4
This document sets out the requirements for recording:
1.1.5
a)
Components relevant to safety and other identified components that will be tracked.
b)
Maintenance events.
This document also provides guidelines for:
a)
The identification and use of maintenance system data in line with Railways and Other
Guided Transport Systems (Safety) Regulations 2006 (ROGS).
b)
Compliance with Professor Uff's recommendations 22, 23, 28 and 29 outlined in the
Southall Rail Accident Inquiry Report.
c)
Accurate and timely updates of data.
1.1.6
This document sets out requirements for recording of rolling stock data that is accessible
between two or more parties within the GB rail industry which could, therefore, be
incorporated in a central data repository and the coding systems to be used.
1.1.7
There is some rolling stock data that is mandatory to be recorded, as set out in
GM/RT2453 and shown in Appendix A, and some data that, while not mandated, is
beneficial to record for safety or operational reasons and is shown in Appendix B. Also
data shown in Appendix A and Appendix B is beneficial to be shared.
1.1.8
The principle of this document is that if rolling stock data was more freely shared then it is
possible to combine the data with other sources of data and transform it into information
that would not be attainable from a single source. This resulting information, provided in a
timely manner, would contribute to significant industry benefits in the following areas:
a)
Safeguarding the rail industry in the event of incidents and defects, enabling root
causes and trends to be accurately determined and identified.
b)
Improving the performance of rolling stock by analysing detailed monitoring and
management data from one fleet of vehicles against another.
c)
Delivering local and national service efficiencies, and performance improvements
resulting from better informed decision making.
d)
Increased reliability of systems, including improved equipment design.

Part 2
Requirements for Setting up a Rolling Stock
System for Sharing Data
2.1
Reporting
2.1.1
Rolling stock data set out in Appendix A and Appendix B shall be recorded in a format that
facilitates the transmission to and receipt from other rail industry members.
2.1.2
Rolling stock shared data shall be input to Rail Vehicle Records System (RAVERS).
G 2.1.2.1
Appendix A sets out the rolling stock shared data fields already mandated by
GM/RT2453, with the current location and file name where this is stored on
RAVERS or the Rolling Stock Library (RSL).
G 2.1.2.2
Appendix B sets out the additional rolling stock data considered necessary
to contribute to the achievement of the outcomes set out in 1.1.8 together
with current location and file name.
G 2.1.2.3
Sharing rolling stock data contributes to safety and interoperability benefits.
The rolling stock data set out in Appendix A and Appendix B should be
included in a central data repository in an agreed format so that it can be
made immediately available to all rail industry members.
2.2
Rolling stock system coding
2.2.1
Common coding systems shall be used to exchange rolling stock shared data. The
following shall be used:
a)
Traction and rolling stock system codes as set out in Technical Standard MP/TT0028.
b)
Defect codes (these interface with rail operating systems, for example the Total
Operations Processing System (TOPS)).
c)
Reason for failure codes.
d)
Non-destructive testing (NDT) codes indicating the type of NDT undertaken (for
example ultrasonic axle testing (UAT) and magnetic particle inspection (MPI)).
e)
Component specific type codes.
f)
Component generic type codes (based on MP/TT0028).
g)
Depot allocation codes (DEPALL).
h)
Assembly status (F/R/M).
i)
Ownership cycle (V/F).
j)
Wheel type (M/T).
k)
NDT operator codes (set up by RAVERS helpdesk).
G 2.2.1.1
Common coding systems should be used to enable the transfer of data
without errors and to assist in the analysis of that data.
G 2.2.1.2
There are a number of common coding systems that are in existence. The
systems set out in 2.2.1 a) to 2.2.1 k) are well recognised within the GB rail
industry. The coding system described in 2.2.1 a) (the Technical Standard
MP/TT0028) describes codes used for description of T&RS. These codes
are kept current and shown on the Parts and Drawing System (PADS)
computer system.

c)
Monitoring of component risks and trends.
d)
Post incident analysis.
e)
Monitoring of component history.
3.2
Maintenance event records
3.2.1
The maintenance event and attributes set out in 3.2.4 shall be recorded and made
accessible between railway undertakings, entities in charge of maintenance, rolling stock
leasing companies, maintainers and overhaulers.
3.2.2
Maintenance events performed to vehicles / components shall be recorded.

another operator, owner or maintainer.
G 3.2.4.4
The management of overhaul contracts requires access to information
relating to planned / unplanned work and the reporting of work performed.
G 3.2.4.5

b)
Ensures that any outstanding defects are visible to all operators.
c)
Ensures that all in-service train defect information is available to the
appropriate operating system.
G 3.4.2.2
