With the AllTraq system, Watco personnel were able to view the locations of their trains in real time. Zone based tracking could alert personnel when trains pass through various points.

Watco could also use the system to locate and manage each car in the rail yard. In addition, personnel could view important information and history for each car.

Acoustic and temperature sensors monitor wheel bearings for problems or defects. Tri-axial accelerometers on the main sill above the bolster bowl monitor truck hunting, vertical pitch, bounce and longitudinal impacts.

Tanker Pressure and Wagon Door sensors could be used to provide even more info to Watco engineers.
