PJW Wrote:I'd certainly recommend reading all the London technical papers (printed in IRSE News most months) over the last couple of years- tend to be quite short, quite focussed and particularly likely to come up in the exams. Recent examples would be the "Victoria Line overlay signalling" and the "Misuse of SIL";
The IRSE technical paper ''Use and Abuse of SIL'' of 14 January 2009 was recorded and is available for playback through the I.Mech.E at
http://www.playitback.org/
The video is slightly over 86 minutes long, and is of the speaker, Roger Short, and does not include the accompanying slide presentation. I would suggest therefore that it might be useful to view the video alongside the paper - this is published in IRSE News 142 (February 2009).
As I was at the original live event, I have not played back the entire video but skipped through fast forward at random - and it does include all of the discussion session. I am sure I would return to this paper and video as part of exam revision.
