Abbotsford, BC – TheNewswire – April 9, 2024 – Gatekeeper Systems Inc. (“Gatekeeper” or the “Company”) (TSXV:GSI) (OTC:GKPRF) a video and data solutions provider for public transportation and smart cities, announces that its wholly-owned subsidiary, Gatekeeper Systems USA Inc. located in Bristol, PA, has received a purchase contract from the Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority (SEPTA) to equip five transit locomotives with image and audio recording devices, including Crash Hardened Memory Modules (CHMMs).
Gatekeeper is an experienced provider to public transportation operators and offers comprehensive solutions that are compliant with the Federal Railroad Administration’s new rule requiring video and crashworthy recording devices on all intercity passenger and commuter trains in the United States. For additional information visit Gatekeeper’s FRA Compliant Locomotive Recording Devices.
SEPTA is one of the largest transit systems in the United States, serving five counties in the Greater Philadelphia area and connecting to transit systems in Delaware and New Jersey. Its services include regional rail, buses, trolleys, subway and a high-speed line to western suburbs.
On October 12, 2023, the Federal Railroad Administration announced a final rule requiring the installation of inward- and outward-facing image recording devices on all passenger train lead locomotives providing scheduled intercity rail passenger or commuter service. The regulation responds to a National Transportation Safety Board recommendation with the aim to enhance safety across the passenger rail industry. The final rule mandates that locomotive video recording devices must remain operational while the controlling locomotive of a passenger train is in motion and data captured must retain at least the last 12 hours of recorded footage and be stored in a crashworthy memory module. Since locomotive-mounted recording devices on passenger trains are categorized as “safety devices” tampering with or disabling of these vital recording systems is prohibited.
