This unit involves the skills and knowledge required to conduct a train roll-by inspection in accordance with workplace procedures and the requirements of relevant system of safeworking, rules, regulations and codes of practice. It includes preparing to carry out a roll-by inspection of a moving train, inspecting a moving train in accordance with workplace procedures, and reporting and/or actioning inspection results. People achieving competence in this unit will need to fulfil the applicable state/territory legislated rail safety requirements and to comply with relevant codes of practice and/or guidelines. Work is performed without supervision, generally within a team environment. It involves the application of operational principles, regulations, system of safeworking, codes, protocols and procedures when conducting a roll-by inspection of a moving train, as part of workplace activities across a variety of operational contexts within the Australian rail industry. Inspecting condition of rolling stock and load may involve: air and electrical connections bearings brake equipment dangerous goods condition and separation draw gear load condition (damage and leaks) load securing devices (chains, ropes and pins) locking and securing devices out-of-gauge conditions superstructures trailing items (ropes and hoses) wheels.
