Sub: Revised Training Modules for Loco Pilots and Assistant Loco Pilots Cadre.

The existing training modules for Loco Pilots (LPs)/Assistant Loco Pilots (ALPs) cadre have been reviewed in the Board’s office in view of the changing technological environment, and taking Safety of passengers’ into account. The revised training modules, enclosed as Annexure, have been approved by Board (Member/T &RS).

2. It may be noted that the revised training modules for LP/ ALP Cadre have been formulated after undertaking a holistic review of all the existing training modules for LPs/ALPs. Hence, this comprehensive set of revised training modules may only be referred to for training of LP/ ALP cadre, and this will supersede all existing training modules for LP/ALP cadre issued earlier.

3. Accordingly, the revised training modules for Loco Pilot/ALP cadre have been scanned and uploaded under MPP Training Circulars and can be viewed or downloaded from Railnet/Indian Railways website.

4. Kindly acknowledge receipt.

Instruction for training centers& Instructors

During classroom training, it is preferable to use audio-visual aids with digital content.
In-depth knowledge of various circuits, such as electrical and pneumatic circuits, etc is not required.
The training should primarily emphasize the activities and responsibilities of the ALP in their day-to-day operations with locomotives/trains.
During subject-specific classroom training, it is essential to emphasize discussions on safety cases, including SPAD, accidents, derailments, collisions, side collisions, and incidents involving entering unwired/sand humps. This emphasis should highlight how adherence to proper procedures or correct actions by the ALP on the subject could have effectively prevented such cases.
For effective monitoring of footplate training by trainee Assistant Loco Pilots (ALPs), temporary IDs should be created in the CMS (CMS software may need modification). Subsequently, trainee ALPs should be scheduled as additional ALPs within the regular loco crew roster during normal train bookings.
A minimum of 1000 kilometers of footplate experience is recommended.
Proper records of footplate kilometers of individual trainee ALPs should be kept by the concerned training center. The record of footplate kilometers should also be maintained in CMS.
To enhance understanding of the working system, it is suggested that during footplate training, trainee ALPs may be assigned to lobbies and booked as additional ALP with the regular set of crew (preferably on lobbies where they are expected to work upon completion of their training).
After being assigned to the lobby, trainee ALPs may be directed to undergo footplate training as Co-ALP (with the regular set of loco crew) for completing at least two round trips in each section of the specific lobby (crew beat) and also stay in running room to the extent possible.
Trainee ALPs may also be allowed to stay in running rooms so that they can gain footplate experience up to the full crew beat along with the train crew. This will also enable them to familiarize themselves with the running room system of working. (In the case of regular ALPs undergoing conversion training, this aspect is not required.) *****

DESCRIPTION DURATION

Train handling on line 12days

After the completion of a 36-day training at Traction Training Centers, trainees shall be directed to their respective divisions for a 12-day ‘Train Handling on Line,’ and shall be booked as Co-Motorman in EMU/MEMU .

*****

Instruction for training centers& Instructors

During classroom training, it is preferable to use audio-visual aids with digital content.
In-depth knowledge of various circuits, such as electrical and pneumatic circuits, etc is not required.
The training should primarily emphasize the activities and responsibilities of the LPP/Motorman in their day-to-day operations with EMU/MEMU trains.
During subject-specific classroom training, it is essential to emphasize discussions on safety cases, including SPAD, accidents, derailments, collisions, side collisions, and incidents involving entering unwired/sand humps. This emphasis should highlight how adherence to proper procedures or correct actions by the LPP/Motorman on the subject could have effectively prevented such cases.

Instruction for training centers & Instructors

During classroom training, it is preferable to use audio-visual aids with digital content.
In-depth knowledge of various circuits, such as electrical and pneumatic circuits, etc is not required.
The training should primarily emphasize the activities and responsibilities of the LP/ALP in their day-to-day operations with locomotives/trains.
While footplating as Co-ALP, the trainee should act like an observer only. He/she shall not interfere with activities of crew. He/she shall NOT be held responsible for lacunae in any routine/defined duties of ALP in case of any untoward incident, etc.
During subject-specific classroom training, it is essential to emphasize discussions on safety cases, including SPAD, accidents, derailments, collisions, side collisions, and incidents involving entering unwired/sand humps. This emphasis should highlight how adherence to proper procedures or correct actions by the LP/ALP on the subject could have effectively prevented such cases.
