Northeast Frontier Railway (NFR) has achieved another significant milestone in its ongoing efforts to enhance safety, security and operational efficiency through technological innovation.
An IP-based Video Surveillance System (VSS) has been successfully installed on the Tower Wagon at New Jalpaiguri (NJP) Depot under Katihar Division of NFR. The system uses advanced IP cameras to transmit high-quality video over wired and wireless networks, enabling centralized and real-time monitoring. This initiative significantly enhances operational safety, security and effective supervision of Tower Wagon activities at the depot.
The newly installed VSS significantly enhances operational safety and security by enabling real-time and round-the-clock monitoring of critical Tower Wagon activities at NJP Depot, particularly during maintenance and OHE works. The system helps to identify potential hazards, ensure compliance with safety protocols and use recorded footage for post-event analysis, training and continuous improvement. With its IP-based, scalable and easy-to-maintain technology, the initiative strengthens supervision, safeguards assets and optimizes workforce management, reflecting NFRs proactive approach towards safer and more efficient and reliable railway operations.
These achievements reflect Northeast Frontier Railway’s commitment to continuous technological upgradation, enhanced safety standards and efficient project execution, contributing to reliable, secure and sustainable rail services across the region.
