Major turnover was based on provision of “Axle Counting Block Systems” to<br />

about 70% local value addition was done at our factory premises in Karachi.<br />
Necessary components were imported from <strong>Siemens</strong> Germany.<br />
<strong>Siemens</strong> Transportation Systems is active in the fields of rail automation (Signaling), traction power supply,<br />
locomotives, trains, and mass transit systems. <strong>Pakistan</strong> Railways is the major client of the business unit. Various<br />
signaling projects have been successfully executed in the last more than four decades.<br />
In the year under review, major new orders received included an order for restoration of signaling systems at<br />
damaged stations / sections of Karachi division. The work entailed restoration of “All Relay Interlocking” at four<br />
stations and “Automatic Block System” on Bin Qasim to Hyderabad section.<br />
Another major order was for provision of signaling spare parts to <strong>Pakistan</strong> Railways for previously executed signaling<br />
projects. Major turnover was based on provision of “Axle Counting Block Systems” to <strong>Pakistan</strong> Railways and also on<br />
the provision of 80 “Relay Groups”; where about 70% local value addition was done at our factory premises in<br />
Karachi. Necessary components were imported from <strong>Siemens</strong> Germany.<br />
Modifications to <strong>Siemens</strong> Tokenless Block Systems were carried out to the entire satisfaction of <strong>Pakistan</strong> Railways at<br />
Lodhran, Khanewal, Kacha Khuh section, making it possible for trains to run up to a speed of 140 km/h on the newly<br />
laid double tracks. The project has been managed with hundred percent indigenous resources the result of highly<br />
skilled and experienced manpower. The business unit also looks forward to future plans of <strong>Pakistan</strong> Railways for up<br />
gradation of their signaling network with electronic interlockings and latest state of the art axle counting block<br />
systems. The future expected projects of "Revitalization of Karachi Circular Railways" and the "Lahore Rapid Mass<br />
Transit System" have been keenly followed up by the business unit in the year under review.
