Considerations
• Arrange Displays to Clearly Communicate Critical Information With Other Information Easily Accessible
• Make any Changes “Intuitive” so Operators Can Easily Switch Between Older and Newer Locomotives
• Additional Information Coming to the Transportation Research Board Railroad Operational Safety Committee (AR070) Website
• Use Sound Design Principles When Taking Advantage of New Technology
