Corrosion Control of Modern Light Rail Transit (LRT) Systems
2017 Joint Rail Conference, 2017Co-Authors: Michael Berman, Quentin P. WilliamsAbstract:Since the introduction of electrified transit systems in the United States there has been a number of advancements in the field of Corrosion Control related to light rail transit (LRT) systems. Modern day direct current (dc) powered LRT systems have been designed with a variety of Corrosion Control features built-in.Most of the research into Corrosion Control and the mitigation of stray currents known as electrolysis in the early days of electrified transit systems first appeared extensively in papers prepared and presented by personnel of the National Bureau of Standards. This research has led to better protection against Corrosion of transit systems and nearby structures throughout the years.Due to the ever increasing number of transit systems being built or upgraded, it’s essential to incorporate the installation, testing and monitoring of Corrosion Control measures in these transit systems. By integrating these Corrosion Control features into the design of LRT systems and subsystems, it will help to prevent premature Corrosion failures on LRT fixed facilities and other structures. This paper identifies the main causes of Corrosion and how Corrosion Control can be implemented into the design of LRT systems to prevent damage to the transit system and other structures.Copyright © 2017 by ASME

Corrosion Control for the Dallas Area Rapid Transit system
Proceedings of the 1999 ASME IEEE Joint Railroad Conference (Cat. No.99CH36340), 1999Co-Authors: E.d. Kale, M. Sanders, W. SidoriakAbstract:The Dallas Light Rail Transit System (DART) operates it's traction power system at 800 volt direct current (DC). Several generations have passed since electrified transit operated in Dallas, the possible dynamic effects of stray current have not been realized by local utility companies. Stray current Corrosion is caused by an earth path of direct current from a source external to an underground metallic structure. DART, like most modern transit systems, incorporates Corrosion Control measures to insure that the DC traction return current travels along the running rails and does not generate stray current interference on surrounding metallic structures. Other routine Corrosion Control methods must also be addressed such as galvanic Corrosion on metallic structures, which results from electro-chemical reactions. This is mitigated by barriers, which prevent a chemical reaction from taking place on the structure. Another method of Controlling Corrosion is the use of cathodic protection, where sacrificial anodes are installed to afford protective currents to mitigate the corrosive effects on a buried metallic structure. DART is active in coordinating Corrosion Control methods with other utilities that own and operate underground structures subject to Corrosion damages. This paper explains the interaction of the traction power, signal, and Corrosion Control disciplines and methods used for the effective Control of Corrosion. The interaction of these disciplines, and coordination with local owners of buried metallic structures will keep Corrosion under Control and maintain a high level of engineered protection.
