    This document presents a risk-based model for inspection and maintenance of railway rolling stock components. A case study of a Scottish train's pantograph system is used to illustrate the model. The model identifies failure modes and causes of different components through importance analysis. It estimates failure likelihood probabilistically and models failure consequences using discounted costs. These include inspection, maintenance, repair costs, train delay penalties, and reputation costs from cancellations. The time-varying failure risk levels can then be used to develop optimal inspection and maintenance programs to minimize total lifecycle costs and maximize reliability compared to other approaches like run-to-failure or periodic renewal.

    ABSTRACT

    Railway engineering is currently confronted with


    various problems caused by premature failures of
    railway assets that require costly and time-consuming
    maintenance work. The railway assets in general are
    categorized into two types: the rolling stock which
    includes assets that can move on railroad and the
    infrastructure which consists of fixed assets. Regular
    inspection and maintenance of these two types of
    assets is essential to ensure network availability and Fig. Rolling stock components
