Platform

One record of the pad, in six stages.

RYDM follows fuel the way it moves through a fueling facility: delivered, stored, dispensed into an identified locomotive, watched for problems and reported.

01 · Receive

Know what was delivered, not just what was billed.

RYDM records each unloading from trucks and tank cars and compares what went into the tanks with the bill of lading. When the two disagree, the right people hear about it.

What RYDM records

  • Truck and tank-car unloading events
  • Bill-of-lading variance, flagged per delivery
  • Loading and unloading history by facility

02 · Store

Every tank on the pad, including DEF.

Tank levels come from the gauges already installed. RYDM keeps the inventory, reports it by tank and facility, and warns your team before a tank runs low.

  • Diesel and DEF tank levels
  • Inventory reports by tank and facility
  • Low-level warnings by tank
Tank and DEF levels against low-level thresholds. Illustrative values.

03 · Dispense

What each bay dispensed, and how.

RYDM reads the meters and nozzle controls at each fuel bay, including nozzle pressure control, and covers mobile fuel trucks that fuel locomotives away from the pad.

What RYDM records

  • Meter readings for every fueling
  • Nozzle pressure control and nozzle status
  • Fuel bays and mobile fuel trucks

04 · Identify

Gallons belong to a locomotive, not a pump.

An AEI reader at the pad reads the locomotive’s AEI tag. RYDM ties the fueling to that unit and records how long units waited in the queue.

  • AEI tag reads at the fueling position
  • Fuelings tied to locomotive units
  • Queue and wait time at the pad
The locomotive’s AEI tag ties each fueling to a unit. Synthetic unit number.

05 · Protect

Catch the leak, the fault and the open derail early.

RYDM watches leak detection, derail status, equipment faults and alarms, keeps their history, and sends email alerts to the people responsible for the facility.

What RYDM records

  • Leak detection and alarm history
  • Derail status
  • Fault and alarm alerts by email

06 · Report

Reports your fuel, mechanical and accounting teams already ask for.

RYDM produces fuel summaries, tank reports, locomotive fueling summaries and inventories, and can post fuel transactions to the railroad’s business systems and partners, set up with each railroad.

What RYDM records

  • Fuel summaries and inventories
  • Locomotive fueling summaries
  • Postings to railroad business systems and partner file exchange
