SSI-R "SpeedMemo" LSTT

Stupid Simple Industries - Rail presents the:

SSI - Rail "SpeedMemo" Locomotive Speed Transition Timer

The SSI-R SpeedMemo is a very simple transition calculator device that allows for long consists to accurately calculate clearance for speed transitions.
Many an inexperienced engineer has seen a transition sign and has thrown the throttle open, only to be found in a ditch some half-kilometre onward, thrown from the tracks by the trailing wreckage of their derailed train.
As any good operator will know, you need to wait for the ENTIRE train to clear the speed restriction!

This device aims to make that task easier, by calculating the distance required for the whole train to clear the restriction and notifying the engineer as soon as that point is reached, preventing dangerous premature acceleration.

Warnings:
This device does not recognise directionality with regards its calculations, therefore, any reversed running will reduce the active transition timer.


As always, SSI allows open usage of our products, with the inclusion of credits via item description or in the "Required Items" list
