The report defines an experimental procedure with which any railroad can start to improve reliability. The success of the test program implemented by the Southern Railway (See Volume 10) demonstrates that the procedure not only works, but offers potential operating and economic benefits to railroads that adopt it. In addition to describing the basic procedures, this report discusses data processing capabilities alternatives for improving reliability, and methods for evaluating these alternatives. The report closes with recommendations to the government and to the industry for improving railroad reliability.
