Dynamic Forecast of Expected Time of Arrival (ETA) for Coaching Trains

Source

Source summary

The ETA proposal should dynamically update arrival forecasts for passenger trains from live running conditions, historical delays and downstream network constraints. Relevant inputs include GPS location, signals, sectional speeds, congestion, weather and maintenance or speed restrictions. Machine learning or statistical models should scale across thousands of trains and multiple operating zones, with APIs supplying passenger apps, station displays and control-room planning.
