Alstom's Micro-Seismic Railway Monitoring System(MRMS) is an innovative solution that augments existing slide fence technology. MRMS utilizes seismic sensors to detect when a rock or other debris falls into the track area. The size of the object can be determined by the signature signal generated by the seismic sensor. If the object is of sufficient size, the Seismic Monitor sends a digital output to the local signaling system.

ALSTOM Signaling has developed the MRMS as a reliable, accurate, cost-efficient way to seismically detect rockslides and other obstructions falling on the right of way. The Micro-Seismic Railway Monitoring System can interface with existing signaling systems and automatically reset itself, improving safety and reducing train delays. MRMS greatly reduces false detections and will reduce operating and maintenance expenses.
