Powering the Rail Network: Reliable Lighting for Maintenance, Safety & Night Works
Area & Inspection Lighting | New GenZero Power Stations

Lighting Challenges Across the Rail Sector
Rail environments present some of the toughest lighting conditions:
Night possessions and limited working windows
Remote trackside locations with no access to mains power
High safety requirements for workers and passing traffic
Changing site layouts that demand flexible illumination
Pressure to reduce emissions, noise and downtime
To meet these challenges, lighting must be robust, highly visible, portable and dependable.

Portable Power & Zero‑Emission Illumination
Modern rail works increasingly rely on battery-powered and generator‑free lighting, reducing fuel costs, emissions and noise while improving safety and ease of use.

GenZero Cobalt 3600
Designed for large‑area illumination without emissions, the GenZero Cobalt 3600 is ideal for overnight rail maintenance and infrastructure works.
​Why it works for rail:
​- Zero emissions and low noise for night works
Fast deployment with no trailing cables
​- Reliable runtime for extended shifts

 

Task & Inspection Lighting for Engineers
For inspections, fault finding and hands‑on maintenance, compact task lighting is essential.

Trio 1000 (Yellow)
The Trio 1000 delivers bright, controlled lighting in a compact format, with a high‑visibility yellow finish ideal for rail environments.
Ideal for:
Track inspections
Signalling and electrical work
Confined or low‑light areas

Ranger:
A durable handheld searchlight with spot to flood and warm to cool light modes, the Ranger is built for engineers who need dependable light on the move.
Key benefits:
Bottom worklight mode for close up jobs
Tough construction for harsh conditions
Reliable performance for emergency and inspection use

Flexible & Modular Lighting for Dynamic Sites
Rail sites rarely stay the same for long. Modular lighting systems allow teams to adapt quickly as work zones change.

TriStar Connect
The TriStar Connect is a versatile lighting system that can be linked together to illuminate larger or evolving work areas.
