Abstact. During automated rheostat tests of locomotives itʹs necessary to control a lot of parameters of the diesel generator set and support systems. Due to the features of perception of the information by human the control is brought to the observation of a small number of parameters. Implementation in practice of rheostat tests of automated systems of inspection and testing allowed to expand the amount of received information. In this article is offered using automated control systems of diesel-generator sets parameters during rheostat tests which allow to accumulate and analyze test date using developed protocols forms and pivot tables with parameters in entire range of loads, also it helps to determine the quantitative index of a technical condition of diesel-generator set.

The article presents the results of the development and implementation of a method for controlling the technological processes of repairing locomotives based on network planning. The methodology allows you to track online bottlenecks during current repairs and reduce the duration of the critical path by varying the time indicators of events and works, using the aggregate-nodal repair method, redistributing resources between critical and non-critical works. The developed methodology is based on the adjustment of basic repair networks, taking into account the workload of process equipment and repair personnel, the availability of spare parts and materials, the need for unscheduled work during the planned installation of a particular locomotive for repair. This approach was implemented within the framework of the automated control system (ACS) «Network Schedule» and provides control and adjustment of the implementation of technological operations according to the indicators of technological preparation of repairs. An algorithm has been developed for determining a generalized performance indicator when assessing the quality of functioning of an automated maintenance and repair control system for a locomotive in service locomotive depots.
