Wabtec Corporation (WAB - Free Report) has launched its new Precision Dispatch System, for which it received an order from Canadian National Railway (CNI - Free Report) . The system is expected to help Canadian National in network automation.
The Precision Dispatch software, acting as a command-and-control system, will help Canadian National increase capacity, and improve efficiency and safety across its more than 20,000-mile network. Wabtec’s president of Digital Electronics business, Nalin Jain, said, "CN is leading the industry in rail network optimization as the launch customer for the Precision Dispatch System."
Wabtec’s Precision Dispatch System is designed to move trains safely and efficiently across the rail network in both signaled and dark territory.

The system provides advanced automation through end-to-end electronic delivery of mandatory directives and automatic implementation of authorities in dark territory. It helps railroads reduce maintenance and operating costs, and improve efficiency of their operations.
