SMARTroute

SMARTroute gives train drivers fast, reliable access to the exact refresher route learning information they need to keep on top of their route knowledge.

Keep your drivers refreshed and confident on every route. SMARTroute lets drivers jump straight to the sections they need instead of sitting through entire route videos, saving time when preparing for rare or diversionary routes. Available on mobile at home, at the depot or on the move, it supports continuous learning beyond scheduled refreshers. Drivers can quickly revise risk points and signals when faced with short-notice changes, while everyone works from the same up-to-date material.
