About the Department:
Queensland's passenger rail network is undergoing significant transformation in response to unprecedented growth and emerging demands. Over the next decade, a series of large rail infrastructure investment projects and system enhancements will be delivered to change the way people travel. The Passenger Rollingstock and Signalling Branch (PRS) is at the forefront, delivering and managing innovative, integrated, and accessible rollingstock and signalling projects to meet the growing demand for rail services in South-East Queensland (SEQ).
The PRS branch has established the European Train Control System (ETCS) Program to lead the deployment of ETCS Level 2, an in-cab signalling system that replaces legacy lineside signals. ETCS Level 2 enhances train safety by continuously calculating safe braking distances and automatically applying brakes when necessary, virtually eliminating over-speed and signals passed at danger (SPADs).
