The Federal Railroad Administrations (FRA) Office of Research and Development has developed a biometric-based Locomotive Security System (LSS) to evaluate as a mechanism to prevent unauthorized use of locomotives. The projects main objective is to improve railroad safety and security using advanced technologies. The LSS integrates available off-the-shelf biometric and ID card reader technologies into a rugged enclosure for application in the harsh railroad environment. The system is easy to use and provides business benefits beyond locomotive safety including: logging and tracking of locomotive crew operating times, positive identification of train operators at any moment in time, and validation of operator against event recorder data for crew-based incentives and incident investigations. One system has been installed and operational on the FRA Advanced Concept Train (ACT) locomotive for over a year. Additional LSSs will be installed and monitored on two of TTCIs locomotives at Pueblo, Colorado, in 2008.
