"If the train, station, equipment department, contact network, etc. Are actors and field personnel, then the dispatcher is the director. Our duty is to maximize the efficiency of railway operations and maximize the adjustment of the organization. " Zhang Bo used an image metaphor to explain his work. As the chief dispatcher of Beijing-Shanghai high-speed rail dispatching station, Jaco is responsible for daily train operation adjustment, dispatching instructions and line tracking control. In addition, he must deal with all kinds of emergencies at any time.
For outsiders, it is a very simple job for the dispatcher to sit in the room, look at the screen, click the mouse and answer the phone. As we all know, as long as the dispatcher arrives at his post, he will be on high alert, which is an ultra-fast operation mode. There are various emergency plans and quick disposal procedures in my mind, which can be clicked, adjusted and released with the mouse. Regarding his work, Jaco said with a smile, "Passengers can't feel us on the train, but the punctuality and safety of the train are directly related to our backstage operation."
Heavy winds, heavy rain and heavy snow, in order to ensure the safety of high-speed rail operation, we must slow down, and the train will naturally be delayed. Many passengers feel anxious at the station, especially the high-speed rail dispatcher in the dispatching hall. "If a train is late, the train behind it will be late. The pre-made train plan will have to be completely overturned and re-formulated. The daily train arrangement must not go wrong. We are more anxious than passengers. " Jaco said. Behind the high-speed rail on the railway line, the high-speed rail dispatching is the general director, a small dispatching desk. High-speed rail travels thousands of kilometers safely because of the strategizing of high-speed rail dispatchers.
