Additional Information

In 2012 I started working on the locomotive contract where I was working on all facets of connection and wiring from underframe through to the cabin.

Then Cairns tilt came and i was given the job of running and connecting various control systems into the main cabin locker.


As that contract was ending I was then moved to the test shed where I was able to test all functions and circuits of the train and fault find any potential issues that my have surfaced.

Then as safety is the highest priority in my working career I was transferred over to the maintenance department where I would plan, coordinate and test any potential safety circuits and or items to ensure a safe working environment for all workers.

In 2021 I was transferred to the train contract cq13 where I worked with the engineer team designing the load capacity and control circuitry of the main A/C power supply locker and then the interconnection into the train .

As that contract came to an end my skill set enabled me to be transferred over to the contract CQ15 where I've been fortunate enough to be installing and if required modifying any systems in the driver's cabin lockers and or dash .
