Moonbility<\/a>, a London-based mobility tech startup, is launching a transformative project in collaboration with Network Rail<\/a>, the Rail Delivery Group<\/a>, and South Western Railway<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Funded by Innovate UK, the company says this initiative aims to recentre passenger needs in railway maintenance decisions using ground-breaking machine-learning technology.<\/p>\n

Moonbility\u2019s new project enhances data visibility and accessibility across the
railway network.<\/p>\n

The initiative will develop a sophisticated machine-learning system designed to predict, simulate, and visualise the impact of asset failures on passengers.<\/p>\n

This includes modelling delay propagation, the allocation of additional operational resources during disruptions, and the carbon emissions associated with alternative transport routes.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn the disjointed data landscape of the railway industry, our technology strives to decipher complex information and align it with the UK\u2019s decarbonisation goals for 2050,\u201d stated Andre Wang, CEO of Moonbility.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur system\u2019s modularity, simulation capabilities, and user-friendly visualisations will ensure that all stakeholders\u2019 interests are addressed, fostering a more sustainable and passenger-focused maintenance strategy.\u201d<\/p>\n

The project, which receives support under Innovate UK\u2019s Net Zero Mobility theme, involves critical cybersecurity oversight by the Warwick Manufacturing Group (WMG) to secure data exchanges throughout the system\u2019s deployment, initially focusing on overhead-line equipment (OLE) maintenance.<\/p>\n

Rail Data Marketplace Lead at Rail Delivery Group, Jez Smith, said: \u201cOne of the aims of the Rail Data Marketplace is to enable innovation across the rail sector.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is no doubt that digital twins and predictive modelling can bring significant benefits to both the operational efficiency of the industry and the experience of passengers, and therefore the Rail Data Marketplace is enthusiastic to support Moonbility in their project objectives.<\/p>\n

\u201cMoonbility\u2019s intent to use advanced digital twin techniques to improve predictive
maintenance to the benefit of train operating companies, passengers and decarbonisation could provide a template for the future use of data across the sector.\u201d<\/p>\n

This collaboration marks the first time Network Rail will integrate direct passenger data from train operators into their maintenance decision-making processes, a milestone that promises to transform maintenance prioritisation and transparency in the railway industry.<\/p>\n
