Appendixes to TCRP Research Results Digest 74: Train Door Systems Analysis

Failures of train doors are the biggest single cause of delay and disruption of rail transit service; therefore, in-depth study and analysis of train door problems can lead to significant increases in the reliability of transit service. This Web document contains the Appendixes to this study, which was published in TCRP Research Results Digest 74, "Train Door Systems Analysis." The appendixes are as follows: (A) Train Door Database Design Documents; (B) Design Information on traindoors.com; (C) Getting Train Door Information from and into traindoors.com; and (D) RSETF Train Door Project History.
