A method for operating a cooling system for a vehicle, for example a rail vehicle, may include circulating a coolant in a first cooling circuit and in a second cooling circuit. A first heat source to be cooled may be arranged in the first cooling circuit and a second heat source to be cooled may be arranged in the second cooling circuit. The coolant may be circulated by pumping the coolant in the first cooling circuit via a first pumping device, and pumping the coolant in the second coolant circuit via a second pumping device. The first pumping device and the second pumping device may each be operated in a normal mode. The method may further include cooling the coolant via at least one cooling element arranged in at least one of the first cooling circuit and the second cooling circuit.

A system for cooling at least one electrical component of a machine. The machine is powered by a liquefied natural gas (LNG). The system includes at least one blower and at least one heat exchanger. The at least one blower is arranged to direct an air flow towards the at least one electrical component. The at least one heat exchanger is arranged upstream of the at least one electrical component. The at least one heat exchanger is using LNG as the coolant for cooling the air flow being directed towards the at least one electrical component.

The invention relates to an energy-supplying double-deck carriage, in particular a passenger double-deck carriage, for power supply, in which a main transformer is arranged in the roof region, preferably on or at the roof, and moreover preferably substantially above a bogie.

According to one embodiment, an electricity storage device includes a first box, a second box, a storage battery, and a flow path. The second box includes a side plate and is housed in the first box. The storage battery is disposed in the second box while being connected to the side plate. The flow path is configured to include the side plate of the second box inside the first box and outside the second box and vertically penetrates the first box.

The present disclosure includes systems, devices, and methods for identifying, detecting, and/or tracking rail features. In some aspects, a system includes a camera and a computer having at least one memory, at least one processor configured to receive a plurality of images from the camera, and for each of the images: assigning a location identifier and identifying one or more rail features that correspond to one of a plurality of predetermined rail features. In some systems, the at least one processor is configured to determine a location of each of the one or more identified rail features.

Systems and methods for a cab-mounted muffler assembly are provided. In one embodiment, a system includes a support structure configured to couple to an engine cab within an interior of the engine cab; and a muffler assembly configured to mount to the support structure within the interior and spaced apart from an engine by the support structure. The muffler assembly is mounted to the support structure vertically above the engine relative to a ground surface on which the engine cab is supported

Disclosed are an activation control method and apparatus for a railway train. The method includes that: at least one activation request sent by at least one motorman controller of a railway train is received; a number of at least one motorman controller sending the at least one activation request is determined; when there are a plurality of motorman controllers sending the at least one activation request, the railway train is controlled to perform an emergency braking; and when there is one motorman controller sending the at least one activation request, it is determined that a target motorman controller has a permission to control the railway train, wherein the target motorman controller is a unique motorman controller sending the at least one activation request. The present disclosure solves the problem in the related art of potential safety hazard of a double-vehicle activation processing method.
