18. We need Standards (& Codification)
• To define where we are on the track – need a coding
system
( Legacy system specified by London Underground)
– N124 = unique area code
– N = northern line
– EB = eastbound track
– LO = local track
– 101 = 101 metres along track in direction from start of an area

19. Location Descriptions Before Robust Standards
‘EDGWARE STATION BETWEEN PLATFORM 2 & 3
FRONT OF P-WAY TOOL CABIN’
‘LCS CODE B097 – IMR - NORTH OF THE STATION
(NEAR THE MOSQUE)’

20. Location Coding Standards – 1
The Tube
Provides consistent location references
– LUL Cat 1 Standard 1-035
- Location Coding System (LCS)
– Controlled single source of truth
– Unique for all track down to 1m
– Unique for all rooms and cupboards
We must use this for how we describe
locations in our asset register (Maximo)

21. Location Coding Standards – 2
UK Rail Industry
• Stations: National Location Code (NLC)
• Track: Engineers Line Reference (ELR)
