Unit of Competency | TLIL3035 - Allocate motive power | |
---|---|---|---|---|
Description | ||||
Employability Skills | ||||
Learning Outcomes and Application | This unit involves the skills and knowledge required to allocate motive power in accordance with workplace procedures and the requirements of relevant safeworking regulations and codes of practice.It includes identifying train operating requirements, establishing motive power requirements and availability, allocating individual motive power units, and adjusting motive power allocation in accordance with workplace requirements. People achieving competence in this unit will need to fulfil the applicable state/territory legislated rail safety requirements and to comply with relevant codes of practice and/or guidelines.While work is performed individually, it will generally be undertaken within a team environment.It involves the application of routine operational principles and procedures to allocate motive power across a variety of operational contexts in the Australian rail systems.No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication. | |||
Duration and Setting | X weeks, nominally xx hours, delivered in a classroom/online/blended learning setting.

Elements of Competency | Performance Criteria | |||||||
Element: Identify train operating requirements | ||||||||
Element: Train timetables, shunting requirements and track conditions for each line or service are identified and records are kept up-to-date | ||||||||
Element: Tonnage of individual trains is identified to enable planning of suitable motive power | ||||||||
Element: Routine usage of motive power units is established to provide an initial allocation framework | ||||||||
Element: Contingency plans covering operational problems are developed and their impact on motive power requirements are taken into account | ||||||||
Element: Establish motive power requirements and availability | ||||||||
Element: Availability of all motive power units is determined including location, operational status, special and routine maintenance requirements | ||||||||
Element: Motive power required to haul tonnage is determined for each train/service and support activity consistent with track geography, gauge, train weight and conditions is identified | ||||||||
Element: Allocate individual motive power units | ||||||||
Element: Motive power units, including railcar and locomotive types, are allocated to ensure train and support activities are serviced | ||||||||
Element: Allocations are documented and communicated to operations personnel and feedback is sought to ensure suitability of units planned | ||||||||
Element: Relevant work health and safety (WHS)/occupational health and safety (OHS) requirements are identified and included in allocation considerations | ||||||||
Element: Documentation authorising the use of allocated motive power for the train service is completed and processed | ||||||||
Element: Monitor and adjust motive power allocation | ||||||||
Element: Use and requirements for motive power are monitored and possible allocation changes are determined to maintain efficient use of resources | ||||||||
Element: Contingency plans for unexpected non-availability of specific motive power units or operational non-performance are implemented | ||||||||
Element: Changes to allocation are negotiated with operational personnel and motive power maintenance personnel, to achieve suitable outcomes | ||||||||
Element: Changes to allocation are negotiated with operational personnel and motive power maintenance personnel to achieve suitable outcomes |
