Abstract
The economic value of research has been well demonstrated on the BHP Iron Ore heavy haul railroad. The research began when the considerable expansion that occurred soon after the start of operations led to accelerated component deterioration. This raised the possibility of having to curtail production. The paper describes how the nature and direction of the research activities have changed over time, with the programmes becoming more proactive rather than reactive.
